OPEN VILLAGE – HOSTS & VENUES WANTED
“We had fun and met lots of interesting people. It was nice to feel part of the community and to see our home filled with lovely art work!” Previous Host
SALTAIRE RESIDENTS
We are looking for Saltaire residents to host artwork by selected artists in their homes, windows or outdoor spaces as a part of the Saltaire Arts Trail. Across Saltaire, these spaces will be open to the public for the three-day event, over the May Day Bank Holiday weekend (Sat 2 – Mon 4 May 2026).
The artists will install and invigilate their exhibition in collaboration with yourself and with the full support of our event team. This relaxed, fun and friendly event is an annual celebration of contemporary art in Saltaire, championing local artists and welcoming artists from across the UK.
SALTAIRE ARTISTS
We also want to hear from Saltaire-based artists and makers who would like to open their studio or spaces as a venue. Please get in touch to find out more details about exhibiting your own work as a part of the Open Village at Saltaire Arts Trail.
BUSINESSES & COMMUNITY BUILDINGS
If you have space – small or large – to show artwork and are interested in becoming a venue at the Saltaire Arts Trail, we’d love to hear from you.
Interested? Contact Lana and Peter by 13 December at: [email protected]
