Our 2025 Viewing Rooms - revisited
Alongside these events, visitors have had the opportunity to experience work by some of the most accomplished artists and makers working today across painting, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, and wood turning — all celebrating our beautiful region, its texture, depth, dynamism, and its enduring cultural significance. Each event can still be viewed in the Exhibitions section of our website, where there is also an opportunity to acquire works ahead of the Christmas and New Year break.
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to all the artists and makers who have chosen to show their work with us over these past few months and for all of those lined up for 2026.
Our inaugural Viewing Room opened in July, featuring the striking landscape paintings of Caroline Mackintosh alongside ceramic works by Norfolk-based maker Laura Huston. In August, we presented a capsule collection of drawings by John Kiki.
