Are you an art lover who’s always wanted to explore local talent but felt overwhelmed by the pressure to buy? Or perhaps you’re simply curious about what the local art scene has to offer? The Grange Open Studio is the perfect place for you!

Held twice a year, in June and November, the Grange Open Studio opens its doors to art enthusiasts of all kinds. Founded by a group of passionate artists, including myself, Deborah Cumming and Clare Parsons, this event is all about creating a welcoming and relaxed environment where you can immerse yourself in art without any expectations or pressure to make a purchase.

Here’s what you can look forward to at our next Grange Open Studio:

2. Meet the Artists: Engage in conversations with the artists behind the creations. Learn about their inspirations, techniques, and the stories behind their pieces. We love sharing our passion with you!

3. A Relaxed Atmosphere: Forget about the stuffy, snooty gallery vibe. The Grange Open Studio is all about enjoying art in a friendly, approachable setting. Feel free to wander, admire, and take in the creative ambiance at your own pace.

4. Gain Insight: Whether you’re an art aficionado or a complete novice, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to learn. Ask questions, get tips on how to display art in your home, or simply soak up the creative energy.
