The Raveningham Sculpture Trail is our main summer exhibition at Raveningham, Norfolk, and is part of Creative Odyssey Projects, arts related projects which aim to create opportunities for artists to develop ideas, collaborate, present and sell their work to diverse audiences. The projects bring creative communities together in various ways and share making skills through workshops with community groups with a commitment to presenting contemporary art in an accessible and professional way. Above all we aim to inspire and make positive impacts on artists and audiences.
We fundamentally believe in the power of the arts to create cohesive communities, impact positively on everyone’s mental wellbeing, health and happiness and are committed to sharing this vision with diverse groups of people.
We are based in Raveningham, rural South Norfolk, where we hold events and workshops throughout the year.
The Creative Odyssey Team are involved in a number of arts events, exhibitions and workshops throughout the year at Raveningham and other venues. Follow us on Instagram @raveninghamsculpturetrail FB @raveninghamsculpturetrail to find out how you can get involved.
