The Assembly House
Summer Open Exhibition 2023

This year 350 artists from Norwich to Northern Ireland submitted a total of 1000 works for the Summer Open. The show ran for six days in June 2023, with work from 48 artists, and over 800 visitors.

The selection panel for the Summer Open 2023 was: Flora Parrott, Artist and post-doctoral researcher on Think Deep, Royal Holloway University London; Caroline Fisher, Trustee of The Assembly House Trust and Director of Caroline Fisher Projects; Henry Jackson Newcomb, Visual Arts Coordinator for The Assembly House Trust.

The Open Call offers an accessible opportunity for artists in the UK at any stage in their career to enter up to three works in any medium. There was no specific theme set for the 2023 exhibition, and artists were not charged a submission fee to enter works. Additionally, there was no commission taken on sales. I’m really pleased we could offer this artist-centred approach, it is made possible through the support of The Assembly House Trust.
