Hiring our space

Our project space and separate meeting room can be hired for exhibitions, performance, events, workshops, talks etc at reasonable rates, by the half-day, day, week or month.

In the first instance, we encourage you to arrange a visit so you can see what we have in terms of space and resources, discuss your ideas and costs. If it seems viable and you are interested, submit a proposal along with approximate dates.

We’ll review the proposal and once it has been accepted, we’ll agree costs and ask for a deposit to book it in.

Costs
For commercial events where entry fees are charged or for funded exhibitions, hire charges will depend on the requirements, expected attendance and duration.

Both the meeting room and project space can be hired for a variety of activities but please advise the type of event and what support you need so we can offer a fair charge.

For non-commercial activities, or for unfunded artists or students looking for exhibition space, we try to keep costs low but please remember we do have overheads so need to cover our costs with a nominal support charge plus any refreshments or materials required.

If you need support with any aspect, our resident artists are experienced in a number of fields and with notice, can often be hired to help with facilitating, hosting, installing or even leading events. Do discuss ideas so we can advise on costs.

Please remember

we are a small group of working artists renting studios so are not able to offer the range of facilities or resources you might expect from a commercial gallery, neither are we always available or able to accommodate all requests. We will discuss the options available and agree with you what support we can provide.

If you have an interesting proposal and we feel it could work in our space and that you would gain from the opportunity, we will do our best to work out a solution. Download the House Rules and further information below.

Contact us – we are receptive to ideas.

UPDATE: As the building was sold in 2017, sadly we no longer have the facility to provide studio spaces or exhibitions. As an artists’ collective we are however continuing to run activities and events on a peripatetic basis, so please join the mailing list or follow us on Twitter @oxheys to find out what we are up to.
