Join us this September as we open the doors to Patrick Studios and Convention House for our Open Studios – a rare chance to step inside working studios, meet the artists, and explore the creative heart of our city.

From Thursday 11 to Saturday 14 September, you’ll be able to visit artists in their spaces, find out more about their work, and get an insight into their creative processes. You’ll also be able to take part in creative workshops and activities led by studio holders and guest artists.

Artists based at Patrick Studios and Convention House will be opening their studio doors throughout the event. From established names to early-career artists, the line-up reflects the breadth and energy of Leeds’ creative scene.

Our Open Studios weekend is part of the city-wide Leeds Open Studios, where artists across Leeds invite you to explore their workspaces. You can find out who’s taking part at leedsopenstudios.com.
