BANKS MILL STUDIOS 

WINTER OPEN STUDIOS 2019

22 - 24 NOV 2019

Visit Banks Mill Studios during our winter Open Studios event to meet over 50 artists, designers, makers and creative services providers.

 

As well as seeing first hand how our artists create their unique designs and handmade products you can also buy original work directly from the artists themselves, something that can't be experienced on the high street. Or meet one of our creative service providers to discuss how they can work with you; from branding and website design, digital and video promotion or photography services.

You can easily spend the whole day wandering around this old Victorian rope factory, which was converted into studios nearly twenty years ago.

Open:

Fri 22nd November 2019 (5pm-8pm)
Sat 23rd & Sun 24th November 2019 (10am-5pm)
