Open Up Sheffield is one of the largest and most successful open studio events outside London, showcasing the creative talent in South Yorkshire and Derbyshire for over 25 years.
The volunteer-run festival, which takes place over two weekends in spring, features over a hundred artists each year. Their artwork is always varied – with everything from watercolour, oil and acrylic painting to jewellery, ceramics, textiles, crafts, wood, glass, photography, printmaking, digital and mixed media.
Studios tend to span the length and breadth of the city – including Oughtibridge, Parson Cross, Nether Green, Manor Oaks, Kelham Island and even as far out as Hathersage.
Keep an eye on the organisers' website for details of Open Up Sheffield 2025.
