Step into the captivating world of Binnel Studios, an artistic retreat located in the former dwelling of Isle of Wight Studio Glass in St Lawrence.
It’s a rarity to find a place pulsating with such ‘understated elegance’, but this well-loved sanctuary – now firmly anchored in the local creative landscape – exudes this unique charm.
An exclusive annual showcase
The anticipation culminates with the yearly Summer exhibition, the only time each year when the eight resident artists showcase their latest work to the public.
Binnel Studios is ready to pull back the curtain this August bank holiday weekend. This event is a precious gem, offering a behind-the-scenes look into the vibrant and progressive world of these imaginative creatives, some of whom are internationally revered.
This year’s talents
This year’s event is a great opportunity to see new work by the resident artists; Molly Attrill, Matthew Chambers, Jane Cox, David Firmstone (at his Orchid House studio pictured below), Sue Paraskeva, Sadie Tierney, Amanda Wheeler and Celia Wilkinson.
Reflective of the diverse talent housed within its walls, Binnel Studios promises an exhibition bursting with a broad array of styles and mediums.
Where and when
The Summer Exhibition takes place on Saturday 26th, Sunday 27th and Monday 28th August 2022 – open daily between 11am – 4pm.
If you are unfamiliar with St Lawrence, from Ventnor continue on the A3055 past Ventnor Botanic Garden until you reach Old Park Road (on your left) and then follow the signs for Binnel Studios.
Entry is free, but don’t forget to visit the cash-point first, because you might just fall in love with what you see. Credit/debit cards can also be used.
