Spike Island Open Studios
This year, Spike Island Open Studios is taking place online so you can enjoy it from wherever you are in the world.
Go behind the scenes of artists’ studios, meet creative practitioners and learn about their processes and ideas, tune into a diverse programme of events, films, performances, radio broadcasts, and more.
ONLINE EVENTS
Full details coming soon of programmed events, screenings and talks, organised in collaboration with our studio artist community.
