Two weekends of Chichester Open Studios Art Trail lies ahead, a chance for the public to meet local artists in person in their own creative worlds. It also offers a platform for emerging artists to showcase their talents and engage with a wider audience.

From its beginnings in 2001 as Open Doors, Chichester Open Studios – Art Trail (COS) has established itself as a key event in the Chichester art event calendar.

The trail will be held on May 18, 19, 25, 26 and 27 (Bank Holiday Monday). It currently includes the City, Eastward, Seaside, Peninsula, Harbour and Downs areas which can be explored individually or as a whole.
