What workshop facilities do you have?

Please visit our facilities pages where you will find information about Norwich University of the Arts’ studios and workshops.

Will there be any studio space available?

You will be provided with access to a working studio space as required during the Fellowship. Studio space for initial research and project development will be located at Bank Plain, the University’s newly acquired building. Depending on the needs of each individual fellow and their research area, we will take a flexible approach to allocating space for production which could be at Bank Plain or within one of the programme areas identified by the fellow.

What times and days is access permitted to the university and facilities? Will this be restricted during academic holidays?

University hours during term time are generally 9am – 9pm Monday – Thursday, 9am – 5pm on Fridays and 10am – 4pm on Saturdays. Access is not permitted on Fridays after 5pm, Saturdays after 4pm, Sundays or Bank Holidays. The University is closed over the Easter weekend and the two days afterwards, as well as the week between Christmas and New Year.

The workshops and some buildings have late opening hours on certain dates during term times only. There is reduced access to some buildings during the academic holidays as Estates have reduced staff numbers during this time.

Is the studio a private or shared space? Will we be able to use it for the whole duration of the fellowship?

See above – allocation of studios will be dependent on the needs of the Fellow.

Will time be allocated for collaborative research with other Norwich University staff? Or will this be flexible, dependent on staff workload?

The time spent with academic staff will depend on the needs of each Fellow and will be an informal and flexible process.

Is it possible to use equipment from the university or do I have to bring my own to work with?

Yes, the University has state of the art equipment and technological resources that you can access. We also have the new Immersive Visualisation and Simulation Lab, the only one of its kind in the UK, and the equipment needed to produce content for that.
