Join Paradise Works artists Jack Brown and Jez Dolan for a free behind-the-scenes studio tour during Open Studios 2026!

Paradise Works Open Studios | Artist-Led Studio Tour

Ever wondered what goes on behind the studio doors at Paradise Works?

As part of our annual Open Studios on Saturday 21 November, join Paradise Works artists Jack Brown and Jez Dolan for a free tour of the building and a chance to meet some of the artists working here.

Jack and Jez will take you around our studios, introducing you to the artists, their work and the different practices happening across the building. Expect finished pieces, works-in-progress, a few messy studios and plenty of opportunities to have a chat and ask questions.

Whether you're familiar with Paradise Works or visiting for the first time, the tour is a chance to get to know the people and work that make up our artist-led community.

Our Multiples Shop will also be open, with affordable artworks available to purchase, offering a way to support our artists and take something home.

Stick around for Open Studios!

The tour is just one part of our annual Open Studios, with plenty happening across the building throughout the afternoon and evening.

From 3–10pm, our studios will be open to the public, alongside exhibitions, performances, music, food and drinks.

Explore Dance With Me, an immersive solo exhibition by British Chinese artist Donald Shek, alongside performances by Lesya Tyminska and PW artist Bridget Coderc.

From 7–10pm, we'll be rounding off the day with DJs, drinks and street food.

Come for the tour, stay for a look around (and maybe a drink or two!).
