Dorset Art Weeks

Every two years, Dorset Art Weeks transforms the county into one of the UK’s largest open studio events. Artists and makers across Dorset open their doors to the public, giving visitors the chance to explore studios, galleries and workshops tucked away in towns, villages and rural settings. From painting, ceramics and sculpture to printmaking, jewellery and textiles, there’s a huge variety of art to discover. Many venues are free to visit, making it a wonderful way to meet local creatives, see their work up close, and even take home a unique piece of Dorset-inspired art.
