We’re wrapping up two truly special weekends at York Open Studios 2026 💛
Thank you to our amazing artists, their dedicated helpers, and every single person who visited, supported, shared and championed the event.
It’s been a joy to see so many people out exploring, connecting and celebrating creativity across the city – with some very kind weather along the way ☀️
We couldn’t have done it without you.
And we’re already excited for next year… our 25th anniversary 👀
Watch this space.

We’ve officially entered our second weekend and wrapped up Day 3 of York Open Studios 2026 - what a day it’s been ✨
A huge thank you to our incredible artists, all the visitors who’ve been out exploring, our brilliant YOS helpers, and even Mother Nature for showing off with that sunshine ☀️
We go again for our final day tomorrow. If there are artists you haven’t made it to yet, now’s your chance!
