This summer, Roseberry Road Studios celebrates its second anniversary, marking two years of transforming an old warehouse building off the Lower Bristol Road into a thriving creative and cultural hub.
So far the team has welcomed over 3,000 visitors to an eclectic mix of events, from art exhibitions and theatre to live music, a wood fired sauna, affordable yoga and a shared community dining experience.
Located in a riverside building in a fast changing area of Bath with limited access to cultural resources, Roseberry Road Studios offers six affordable creative studios and two large gallery spaces, while also acting as a vibrant community space for a range of events.
Its programming has already included exhibitions by renowned photographers Homer Sykes and Toufic Beyhum, painter Dirk-Jan Van Dijk, alongside partnerships such as a successful Dine In Art event with Bath Community Kitchen.
Roseberry Road Studios aims to bridge the divide between the city centre and the Twerton area by creating opportunities for integration, expression and empowerment through the arts. Its riverside location is being further developed over the coming months to include a café and bar to support local interaction and generate a sustainable income.
A new partnership with Bath Spa University aims to connect students with their local community and offer them a platform to display their work and gain professional experience.
“At a time when Bath’s creative community is under increasing pressure from rising costs and lack of affordable space, Roseberry Road Studios is committed to offering accessible, inclusive opportunities to artists, students, and local residents,” said James Carlin, Chief Executive, Roseberry Road Studios
Upcoming highlights include a major exhibition by Bath-based artist Sohrab Crews, a debut Bath gig for DJ and Primal Scream bassist Simone Marie Butler and the continuation of popular wellbeing activities like yoga with Judi Bowers.
