Gateshead Open Studios (GOS) is a community walking trail which combines the concepts of ‘Open Studios’ and ‘Open Doors’, inviting visitors into various creative and historic venues in Gateshead, many of which are normally closed to the public.

Taking place across the half term weekend in October 2019, GOS would provide a rare opportunity for the public to meet local artists/designers in their studios and discuss their creative processes, as well as exploring art & design features of historic venues.

We will run free creative workshop activities, welcoming all ages and abilities to take part and offering cross-generational opportunities for skills to be shared. As well as offering an inspiring weekend for visitors, the project provides an opportunity for the creatives involved to sell their products directly to buyers.
