Norfolk Art Event - 80 Days
We close our Pop-up Exhibition on Saturday 30th September.  We’ve had wonderful feedback as well as some pretty impressive people passing through - Sir Nicholas Serota (ex-Tate, now head of Arts Council England), Richard Long, Tom Stoppard, Nicholas Culling  (Director of the National Portrait Gallery), John Richardson (world renowned expert on Pablo Picasso); as well as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge from their Norfolk home on the Sandringham Estate.

We have enjoyed a generous mention in the London Evening Standard, EDP Norfolk magazine gave us another mention (see below) as did The Telegraph Homes section and plenty of local press outlets.  Very appreciative London, regional and international gallerists have also visited and admired the high quality of work on display – and indeed made purchases themselves. On top of this we have been  encouraged by the many local interior designers, hoteliers, venue owners, developers and new home-owners who have been to see the show and commit themselves to purchasing or commissioning a new piece from one of our exhibitors for their homes, offices or venues.

 

 
 
We would also like to thank our key sponsors, Norfolk Country Cottages and Congham Hall Hotel and Spa
