If you’ve ever wondered what happens on the “other side” of our building, now’s your chance to take a look. Over the next two weeks, pop in for a nosy, explore working studios, see artworks in progress, chat with our artists, and discover the incredible creativity happening behind those private doors.
Now in its 14th year, Medway Open Studios & Arts Festival was founded by our very own Heather Burgess, who grew up in Medway and has always been passionate about championing the area’s creative community.
Today, the festival is run by a dedicated team of Medway-based creatives: Xtina Lamb, Wendy Daws and Matilda Flood.
