Bridport Artists Open Studios this weekend
























Bank Holiday Open Studios

A dozen artists based at St Michael's Studios in Bridport's Art & Vintage Quarter are opening their studios to the public over the August Bank Holiday weekend from Saturday 27 to Monday 29 August.

Started in 1999, St Michael's Studios has established Bridport as one of the most exciting artistic communities in the West Country, providing work and exhibition space for a remarkable mix of award-winning painters, sculptors, illustrators, designers and photographers.

Open Studio events are designed to bring the public into the artists workplace, get a feeling for the creative process and maybe even a glimpse into the mind of the artist. You'll find a wide variety of art on show, from well-known names, to emerging artists and keen new-comers. So whatever your taste in art, we're sure you'll find something to enjoy.

Participating artists include Kit Glaisyer, Caroline Ireland, David Brooke, Andrew Leppard, John Boyd, Annalisa Renee, Jan Zajac, Lisa Clement, Caroline Moore, Marion Taylor, Sally Davies, Marion Irons and Jemma Thompson.

The public are also welcome to attend the Launch Party for St Michael's Open Studios that takes place at the Studios on Friday 26 August from 6.30 to 9pm.
