Supporting Norwich Arts Centre There are lots of ways you can support Norwich Arts Centre. Individual giving, along with the support of large and small companies, allows us to deliver our multi-award winning programme. In this brochure I would like to offer particular thanks to Malcolm Drew from Piano Time who has supported us with the moving and tuning of our fantastic Yamaha grand piano. This support has allowed us to be more ambitious in how we use our piano to ensure as many people as possible get to enjoy it. Check out The People’s Piano on the streets of Norwich as part of the Lord Mayor’s Celebrations and maybe even have a go yourself. Thank you Macolm.
