About the local Open Studios event

Thirty-two artists from across the city will be opening their doors to the public in time for the Christmas shoppers and art enthusiasts. Painters, photographers, ceramicists, jewelers, textile artists, sculptors and letter carvers, to name but a few, will be selling and exhibiting their work on the weekend of 27th – 28th November at locations across the city.

The participating venues are Cambridge Artworks, The Studio, The Cambridge Museum of Technology and six individual artists in the De Freville area. With the locations in walking distance from each other and maps and refreshments available at each one, take this exceptional opportunity to amble between the venues discovering some beautiful and original works of art. What’s more, admission is completely free!

At Artworks

There will be an exhibition of affordable art in the Artspace, and all the studios will be open. This is an opportunity to talk to the artists, who will be in their studios over the weekend.

July 2010 10th Anniversary event

10-11th and 17-18th July 2010

Exhibition and Open Studios from 11am – 6pm

We celebrated 10 years at our Green’s Road premises, having moved here from Negus Yard in Homerton Street, Cambridge to make way for a new development. We moved at the end of July 2000, after five years at Negus Yard. The building, a former carpentry workshop, was left as an open shell and when we arrived, we set about partitioning off the space into individual studios, an office and toilets. Then, with the help of a lottery grant, we built the Artspace, which has been successfully used for courses, exhibitions and a variety of arts events over the past ten years. Many artists have used the building during this time, either to rent studio space or to use the Artspace; to teach, attend courses, or to exhibit. We have also welcomed many members of the public over the years to our annual Open Studios and to various fundraising events in support of local charities.

Exhibition and Open Studios

To help celebrate, we invited former members to submit examples of their artwork on a postcard in contribution to our celebratory exhibition to held in the ArtSpace on the open days of 10-11th and 17-18th July. It took a little time to track down some of our former artists; some are as far away as Australia, the US and South Korea! Other artists nearer to home have also been invited to exhibit and all work will be sold to support the studios. Visitors to the exhibition saw seventeen working studios under one roof and the studio artists were on hand during the open days to talk about their work and to answer questions. All postcards in the exhibition were for sale by silent auction.
