Monuments is an exhibition of art, performance, and poetry at Norwich Historic Churches Trust headquarters, St Martin-at-Palace Church. We are looking for artists and writers who are interested in showing their work in an interesting location, with slightly unconventional means. As the church is listed we are unable to attach anything to the walls, so artists involved will have to think outside the box about how to utilise the space. The exhibition is interested in how things persist through time, how the way we interact with them changes, and how they may last far into the future. We are looking for work that considers the passage of time, decay, and restoration. The pasts in our future, and the futures in our past.

Accessibility

Due to limitations of showing in a historic listed building, and alterations in the 80s, a large amount of the show requires use of steps. Other than the chancel for which there is a ledge the ground floor is accessible, and performances, a variety of exhibits, and the art sale area will be located there.
