The North Norfolk Arts Directory
The North Norfolk Arts Directory is NNDC's in-house searchable database containing details of many of the artists and companies working in North Norfolk and many voluntary arts organisations offering opportunities locally to get actively involved in the arts. You can, for example, use the directory to find an amateur theatre group, choir or painting class, or to find an artist in order to commission or purchase a piece of art.

If you or your group would like to be included in the Arts Directory, please email Rosie.Glasgow@north-norfolk.gov.uk or download an Arts Directory Application Form (Word, 30kb).
