Cromer Artspace: Sculpture @ the Grove
Cromer Artspace is excited to be holding its first outdoor sculpture exhibition in the delightful grounds of The Grove Hotel in Cromer from 28th June to 16th July 2025.
As a charity our mission is to bring art to Cromer for the benefit of both residents and visitors. We run Artspace on the Prom, showcasing contemporary art from East Anglia and beyond, in our iconic art deco building on the seafront. Cromer Artspace also organises the Bigger Picture project, with full-size reproductions of works from a nationally important collection exhibited on walls around the town each year. In 2025 works will be from the National Galleries of Scotland.
Sculpture @The Grove will show new, site-specific work. To consider a submission, sculptors are invited to visit the Grove on Wednesday 16th or Thursday 17th October (11am – 3pm). You will be able to look at possibilities for work and talk to members of the panel.
If you would like to visit on one of these days, please email to book your place.
Please let us know if you do not wish us to keep you email on record for future communications about Cromer Artspace sculpture exhibitions.
Submissions should be made through our website cromer-artspace.uk by 31st January 2025. Further information and forms will be available on the website from 18th October. The selection panel will consist of Desmond Brett, Rosy Gray, Sarah Horton and Fiona Roberts. There is no submission fee. We regret that for this 2025 exhibition we are not able to make any payments to artists, who will need to arrange transport and insurance for their work.
We expect to select about 30 works for the exhibition, but of course this will depend on size and proposed locations.
Selected artists will install their work 25th to 27th June 2025 and take down on 17th and 18th July 2025.
The launch of Sculpture@The Grove will be on Saturday 28th June 2025.
Alongside the outside exhibition there will be a show at Artspace on the Prom of sculptors’ drawings, maquettes and small works. Sculptors will be invited separately to contribute to this parallel exhibition. However do please let us know if you are interested.
