Wimbledon Art Studios, Riverside Road, London

Over 150 London artists open their studio doors to this family friendly event.

One of London’s largest artist communities, Wimbledon Art Studios, a thriving community of over 250 professional artists based next to Wimbledon Dog Stadium, will be opening its doors to the general public for four days, from Thursday 14th until Sunday 17th May 2015.
This will be the 37th Open Studios event held at WAS.
First opened in 1993, WAS is now a recognised creative community spanning well-established and emerging artists. Work produced is extremely diverse and the 250-plus resident artists include painters, sculptors, illustrators, designers, photographers and printmakers, among many other disciplines.

The four-day Open Studios event is the only opportunity for the public to visit the studios and see the work produced. It is also an opportunity for resident artists to sell their work directly to the public, and to unveil new and experimental work to an enthusiastic audience. Guests from around the UK and Europe meet under one roof to visit the studios of artists whose work is generally shown in main international art fairs and prestigious galleries, as well as the newest emerging talent from Europe’s leading art colleges. Entry to the show is completely free at all times. Previous shows have attracted around 4,000 visitors over the four days.
