Outpost

"OUTPOST is an artist run gallery based in Norwich. It was founded in November 2004 with financial support form Arts Council England East, Norfolk County Council, Norwich City Council and Norwich Gallery. OUTPOST is committed - in a region with few such venues - to the uncompromising presentation of contemporary art, resulting in a core programme of 12 exhibitions per year - selected from the membership archive and a wider remit - each exhibition opening on the 1st of each month. A programme of events is also run that includes film nights, critical forums, group exhibitions and artists' talks. Its operating systems limit committee members to two years service to ensure that selection and organisational processes are prevented from becoming stale.
