POSITIVE POWER: Print Cromer 2027

Building on its previous successes PRINT CROMER is back for its fifth year, showcasing original prints at Artspace on the Prom and around the town.

What is the power of creativity? Art has the ability to inspire, connect, challenge and change the way we see the world. Throughout history, printmaking has been a powerful tool for communicating ideas, challenging authority, protesting injustice and championing positive causes. The theme of Positive Power invites artists to explore the many ways in which creativity can influence, energise and bring about change, whether personal, social, political or environmental. It might celebrate the forces that shape our lives and the world around us, or explore ideas of resistance, transformation, connection and empowerment. There is also an opportunity to play with the language of print itself: the relationship between positive and negative space, the reversal and transfer of images, and the interplay between what is present and what is absent. We invite printmakers to interpret the theme broadly and imaginatively, taking it in whatever direction it suggests to them.

Submission call out in January 2027.
