Call for Entries
IN PROXIMITY
Norwich Castle Open Art Show, 14 February – 14 June 2026
Submission Deadline: 30 November 2025
Norwich Castle and East Anglia Art Fund (EAAF) invite artists based in East Anglia to submit recent work in any media for the open art show In Proximity. The exhibition will explore experiences of closeness, from ways of looking, making and interacting, to the impact of bringing together diverse approaches in the same space.
Work will be selected by writer and curator Sarah Lowndes and artist Daniel & Clara, with Amanda Geitner, Director of EAAF and Lisa Newby, Curator of Modern & Contemporary Art at Norwich Castle.
Artists can submit up to two works, with a £10 submission fee per work. All artworks must be available for sale during the exhibition. EAAF will promote and administer sales and will take a 35% commission from all purchases. All funds raised will be used to continue EAAF’s support for exhibitions and art education in the region.
In Proximity will occupy the main temporary exhibition spaces at Norwich Castle, the largest Open Art Show to date.
