About Open Studios

Discover creativity at our inaugural Open Studios Day! Meet artists, explore their workspaces and experience our newest creative community!

Step inside the creative heart of our studio block for Open Studios Day, a celebration of artistic diversity, process, and community. For one day only, our doors open to reveal the working spaces of painters, sculptors, printmakers, photographers, designers, and makers whose practices thrive within these walls. Visitors are invited to wander through the studios, engage directly with artists, participate in demonstrations, and experience the atmosphere where ideas take shape — from first sketches to finished works.

This event offers a rare glimpse behind the scenes of the creative process. Each studio tells its own story: canvases in progress, walls marked by experimentation, and tables scattered with materials that reveal the rhythm of making. Together, these spaces form a vibrant ecosystem of collaboration and independent vision — a living, breathing gallery that evolves daily.
