Cromer Artspace on the Prom

The Art Deco block on Cromer’s West Promenade

Cromer Artspace on the Prom is a project to create an artspace in an ‘art deco’ building on the west promenade in Cromer. This is a real opportunity to bring an unused heritage building into community use, creating a unique destination for North Norfolk. This is an iconic building with a superb location which will attract a high calibre of national and international artists, of interest throughout the region.

The building has been empty since the tidal surge at the end of 2013 so needs some love and attention to enable us to use it all year round, and to improve the access which currently involves a set of steep steps. While the plans for the major works are developed, put through the planning process, and the necessary funds for the work raised we have opened the gallery in it’s rustic state. It’s still an amazing space in an amazing location.

Please consider supporting the project by donating via our just giving campaign.

To find Artspace on the Prom, on the promenade in Cromer walk to the far west end (that’s left at the bottom of any slope or steps). The nearest car park is the Runton Road carpark. Disabled parking is at the bottom of the Melbourne slope (sorry, no wheelchair access at present).

Events at: Cromer Artspace on the Prom

This event is running from 1 November 2022 until 6 November 2022.

How, in 2022, do we view the relationship between peoples and places, connected rather than separated, by the North Sea? Can we still find links, traces of a once thriving shipping network? What happens if we reach out to the sea instead of inland?
For one week, five artists whose work derives from North Sea coastlines and associated landscapes, will occupy Cromer Artspace in order to collect material for future works and to discuss their potential.
