Anyone in touch with Vanilla or CUSP will already know – we are opening up a new space together in Leicester. It’s going to have studio spaces for artists upstairs and our own events/exhibitions space on the bottom floor. I know what you’re thinking, and If you just calm down a second I’ll tell you exactly how you can get involved.
If you consider yourself to be an artist, illustrator, photographer, sculptor, furniture designer, swiss cheese maker or whatever else needs a workspace along side a bunch some creative minds, you can apply to have your own workspace on our top floor. It’s a huge building, however in total there are will only 16 places available. That means there will be plenty of space for anyone who likes swinging cats, but you’ll have to make sure you book fast so not to miss out!
The space itself lies smack down between the Curve and the Phoenix Square cinema (two of the largest cultural developments in the city) in Leicester’s Cultural Quarter. There is also the LCB Depot close buy for anyone who needs help with the business end of creativity. Without forgetting, you’ll be on top of one of the worlds most brilliant gallery spaces. It’s an opportunity to mingle with these zones and get your name about, as well as let your hair down and make some damn-hot art.
We know that if your focused on being creative you probably won’t have much money, so the cost of each space is a mere £65 per calendar month. This is likely to seem very affordable to anyone who has had to rent studio space in the past.
We have an open-studios event on Monday this Tuesday 20th September between 5:00-6:30pm, where anyone is welcome to see the potential. It’s also a good opportunity to make yourself known to us and book your place in the studios.
