SPACES

originalprojects;is a registered artist, non-profit making educational charity based in Great Yarmouth.
A core feature in our work is Developing Cultural Capacity and Infrastructure*; a strategy born from an observed gap in local arts provision as a means to build the local arts community and networks and raise Great Yarmouth's profile as a serious cultural producer.


Work includes:


  • providing affordable studio space for contemporary art practitioners and flexible workspace options for community creatives 
  • offering continued professional development - workshops, talks, crits, trips
  • supporting collaboration with networks across the region and beyond 
  • curating a critically-engaged contemporary art programme
  • ... and more, responding to needs and sector developments
