Creative Custodians - Arts organisations & the heritage buildings of Norwich

In the late 20th century a regeneration trust, HEART, was strategising futures for Norwich's historic public buildings, from it's base in Norwich Guildhall. Today this important landmark building is home to the Norfolk and Norwich Festival.
The key priority for keeping a building in good repair is maintaining it's use and relevance; over twenty arts and cultural organisations are tenants in the historic civic buildings and deconsecrated churches in our city centre. They are the caretakers for the buildings they inhabit; securing vital funding for maintenance and redevelopment.
Hannah Wooller from Matter of Place Architects tells the stories of the recent and planned redevelopment of some of Norwich's key cultural assets.
