FUTURES: Heritage and Technology

Heritage & Technology is a one day event exploring the intersection of heritage, craft, and innovation. Together, we’ll reflect on what traditional processes can teach us — and how technology continues to shape and support creativity in unexpected ways.

The day will feature guest speakers from our alumni community, alongside short talks working across a range of creative disciplines. Each session will offer insight into how heritage practices influence contemporary making, design, and digital exploration.

As part of the event, we invite attendees to take part in our collaborative Timeline installation. A space to share photographs, memories, and pivotal moments that celebrate the rich history of Norwich University of the Arts, its buildings, and its people.

Join us for an inspiring day of conversation, creativity, and connection followed by refreshments and the opportunity to network with fellow artists, makers, and innovators.
