Finding a Studio

Although by no means automatic, many artists find themselves in need of a studio space, either temporarily or permanently.  Many artists do not require a studio - if their work is small, or can be managed at their home - or simply cannot afford one.

This section covers information and advice about what to expect if you do need a studio - particularly on the types of contracts you might encounter when renting one.  It can be read in tandem with the studios section on the main Artquest site, which lists artist studio providers in London.

These articles focus on:

  • Organisations to contact for finding a studio
  • Developments in public policy
