The much-loved Hempstead Arts Exhibition and Sale is set to return to Hempstead-by-Holt this August for its twelfth year.

Taking place on Saturday, 30^th and Sunday, 31^st August 2025, the exhibition will showcase more than 200 works of art by over 30 local artists at Hempstead-by-Holt Village Hall, North Norfolk.

All proceeds from artwork sales will be donated to Hempstead Church.

Ian Summers, organiser of the exhibition, said: “We are excited to be hosting this much-loved event for the twelfth year. It is a pleasure to welcome so many talented local artists and give them a platform to share their work.”

Since launching over a decade ago, the exhibition has featured more than 140 artists and raised over £25,000 for the church. In 2024 alone, it raised £3,042.

Ian added: “Norfolk offers such a rich source of inspiration, from wildlife and nature to our beautiful coastal and rural landscapes. Visitors can expect a wide range of styles, including photography, sculpture, fine art and mixed media. We are looking forward to welcoming both new and returning visitors and hope many will find a piece of art they love and want to take home.”

The exhibition will be open from 10am to 5pm on both days at: Hempstead-by-Holt Village Hall, The Street, Hempstead, NR25 6TL
