\n Joyful Noise – Art Exhibition <\/h3>\n
\n\n \n
\n

Open 16 May – 25 October 2026<\/h4>\n

Joyful Noise<\/em> is a new contemporary art exhibition at Salisbury Cathedral with works by multiple internationally renowned artists. The show brings together painting, sculpture, text, video, and sound artworks to explore how joyful noise can affirm presence, belief, community, and care.<\/p>\n

\u200bThe exhibition includes works by Denzil Forrester, Christine Sun Kim, Yuri Suzuki, Sokari Douglas Camp, and Phyllida Barlow, along with new commissions from Caroline Walker, Tim Etchells, and Emeka Ogboh.<\/p>\n

\u200bJoyful Noise<\/em> reimagines the biblical call to \u201cmake a joyful noise unto the Lord\u201d as a modern take on how sound can unite, inspire, and celebrate. The phrase is rooted in religious tradition but it speaks to shared human experiences. It encourages us to see sound as a universal force that crosses beliefs, cultures, and personal stories, and has long been used to express worship, gratitude, and unity.<\/p>\n

Throughout the exhibition, joyful noise takes many forms. It appears in language, musical instruments, and the human voice, as well as in clapping, chanting, singing, dancing, spoken prayer, ritual recitation, and even the sounds of nature.<\/p>\n

Visiting the Exhibition<\/h4>\n

Joyful Noise<\/em> is open during visiting hours<\/a><\/strong>, and is included with a general admission ticket.<\/p>\n
