Our Room.2 cohort have been busy in the studio for the past few weeks!

Caitlin Hamblett (Ceramics, Textiles, Print)
Nicola Shaw (Printmaking, Painting)
Alyssa Teixeira-Harcourt (Mixed Media)
Heather Tully-Bolton (Painting, Photography, Sculpture)

ROOM is our artist residency scheme in partnership with TERM Art Classes. Our original pilot scheme successfully ran from July to December 2025. In 2026, we reshaped the scheme to offer a 5 week residency to 4 artists, giving them a consistent studio space plus opportunities to exhibit, skill share and take part in artist crits.

Additionally, Caitlin, Nicola, Alyssa and Heather will all be speaking about their artwork at this evening's "Mixer" event at Bailiff Bar. Free entry from 6pm - 9pm, this is a great opportunity to find out more about ROOM, the artists and meet other creatives.
