A total of 40 artists and makers are throwing open the doors to their homes and studios in West Kirby, Hoylake and Thurstaston later this month.

Wirral Open Studio Tour is now in its 13th year of celebrating visual arts, and will see artists and makers exhibiting in dozens of venues across the peninsula on the weekend of 10/11 June.

“The weekend is an excellent opportunity to talk first-hand to the artists about their work, their inspiration
and processes, and to view the art in the environment in which it is created. Or you can just enjoy wandering through the various venues attempting to answer that eternal question ‘What do artists do all day?’.

“Our artists work in a variety of disciplines including painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, glass, textiles and jewellery; so whatever you are interested in, there will be something for you.

“Much of the work on show will be for sale so you can, if you wish, take away a piece of original artwork to treasure.”

All studios are open from 10am-5pm on Saturday 10th June and Sunday 11th June, with some venues also open from 6pm-9pm on Friday 9th June.
