Makers! Artists! Interested in BOS, but don’t have a studio to open? Apply for a Quayside Artisan Hut instead!

These wonderful additions to the quayside are run by Berwick-upon-Tweed Town Council, who have kindly given us use of them during both Open Studios weekends. 26-27 Sept & 3-4 Oct 2026.

Perfect for those artists & makers who live outside the geographical criteria (within 10 miles), or those who don’t have a suitable studio to open up. Further info on the huts can be found in the Application Guide.

If you would like to secure a hut as an alternative venue during the Open Studios please apply to Berwick Open Studios, and use the relevant section of the form.
You will not need to pay for the hire of the hut in addition to your application fee.

Application Deadline: Fri 12th June.

PS> If you’re interested in huts at other times, please get in touch with Berwick-upon-Tweed Town Council - The Quayside Artisan Huts are for local makers and creators to have a low-cost outlet for whatever it is they make or create. They are available on a regular or ad hoc basis and are for hire on Wednesday and Saturdays in line with Berwick's market days. If you would like any more information or to book, please email [email protected]
