Open Doors
Open Doors is a programme of arts activity that is part of the heritage and culture offer in Newark and Sherwood. In 2023 we were awarded funding from Arts Council England to become a National Portfolio Organisation. Our three-year programme, Open Doors, increases creative opportunities for young people and underserved groups, and helps us support the needs and interests of our communities.
Take a look at what we have coming up! Upcoming events

Our Heritage
Getting involved in heritage has the power to enrich our lives and offers the chance for communities across Newark and Sherwood to discover objects from museum collections which are not normally on display.
