Banks Mill Open Studios 2024!
Our flagship event is BACK! Once again, Banks Mill will be opening its doors to the public and showcasing some of the best creative talent in Derby.
Our huge variety of creative businesses include members and tenants from across Derbyshire and cover a plethora of creative endeavours. Visitors to Banks Mill can expect to meet and explore the studios of painters, potters, illustrators, photographers, composers and printmakers to name but a few!
Open Studios kicks off on Friday 22nd November at 4pm. The evening begins with drinks in the foyer gallery space, where visitors can gather and browse the studio displays for each artist that will be taking part, before going on to explore our amazing studios.
On Saturday 23rd and Sunday 24th, Banks Mill will be open from 10am – 5pm for visitors to shop all day long. Banks Mill has welcomed so many new tenants this year that even regular visitors will have new artists and businesses to discover as well as some of our Affiliate Members who will be setting up in our vacant studios for one weekend only.
Our partner venue Dubrek Studios, will be providing food and drink throughout the weekend, if you need a place to sit and ponder your purchases over a cup of tea and a slice of cake, the Dubrek Cafe will provide.
Open Studios offers the public a chance to look behind the closed doors of our creative practitioners and support small independent start-ups who offer products and services unlike any other.
