Pictures Around Cromer, The National Gallery Collection (2 September 2022 – 31 April 2023) is an outdoor exhibition across the seaside town of Cromer in Norfolk, comprising up to 30 life-size replica artworks from the National Gallery Collection.

 Following the successful Bigger Picture initiative devised by Cromer Artspace whereby life-size reproductions of great works of art from all over the world were displayed in various outdoor locations around the town of Cromer during lockdown,  the facsimiles from the National Gallery Collection will be seen in multiple locations throughout the town accompanied by a label with information about the artwork and a QR code linking to further online resources. Cromer Artspace will also produce a printed guide and map.

 The Gallery’s Learning Team will be running a free and exclusive teacher training session for Cromer’s primary schools.  Every year, the National Gallery partners with organisations and audiences across the UK in a range of different and innovative ways to encourage everyone in Britain to engage with their national collection.

Great art should enrich the daily life of everyone in Britain today, and over the past three years, the National Gallery has partnered with a large number of organisations of very different scales through a variety of projects.

As The National Gallery continues to develop their programmes they are keen to create new opportunities for access and engagement with people across the UK, in particular those who have the least access to art.
