Arts Richmond is once again coordinating the Art House Open Studios festival for 2026, when the borough's creative community opens its studios and homes to members of the public.

The festival gives visitors a chance to engage directly with artists, designers and makers from all corners of the borough.

This year the festival will include the spring bank holiday weekend, taking place over 23, 24 and 25 May, as well as the weekend of 30 and 31 May.

The festival showcases the diverse range of work from artists across the borough and is an opportunity to open a dialogue between artists and residents.

Free to access, venues will be open 11am to 5pm daily, and several will offer additional demonstrations and other special events. 

Full details are available on the Arts Richmond website, and hard-copy brochures with details of all venues will be available from local libraries and arts venues from mid-April.
