Our biggest ever Worcestershire Open Studios Art Week will take place from 22–31 August, with more than 180 artists and makers will open their studios and creative spaces across the county, offering visitors the chance to meet the artists, see how work is made and buy directly from the people who create it. Art Week is free to visit, with many new venues taking part this year. The 2026 Worcestershire Open Studios Art Week map and guide are now live, ready for you to use to plan your Art Week.
Worcestershire Open Studios is a volunteer-run, non-profit organisation championing artists and makers across the county and encouraging the wider public to engage with the visual arts. As well as running Art Week, we host this year-round website where you’ll find our artist directory and links to the workshops, courses, events and exhibitions that they are taing part in or hosting.
Worcestershire Artists and Makers Directory
Worcestershire Open Studios is proud to celebrate and support artists and makers from across our beautiful county during August Art Week but also year round on the website and via other opportunities. Our talented members cover a huge artistic spectrum: discover painters, ceramicists, photographers, jewellers, woodworkers, glass and print makers and sculptors as well as calligraphers, textile artists and more.
Not all members are able to participate in Art Week so please do browse our comprehensive Artist and Maker Directory and enjoy the breadth of talent you’ll find across Worcestershire’s creative community. You can also keep up -to-date about what events and exhibitions they are taking part in here.
Be Inspired, Learn New Creative Skills
Throughout the year, our members offer a variety of courses and workshops across Worcestershire, spanning a wide range of creative disciplines – from watercolour and abstract mark-making to stained glass, ceramics, life drawing, printmaking, jewellery, sculpture, and more. Whether you’re interested in taster courses, weekly classes, or art retreats, you’ll find something to ignite your creative spark.
All classes are organised by the artists themselves, so please contact them directly for any enquiries.
