Calling All Leeds Artists and Makers: Join the Roundhay Artists Open Studios Art Trail 2025!

Roundhay Artists is excited to announce that we are inviting guest artists and makers who live in Leeds to join us for our popular Open Studios Art Trail this year, from Saturday 3rd to Monday 5th May 2025.

If you are a practising artist or maker eager to showcase your work, share your creative process, and engage with the vibrant local community, we would love to have you involved!

About the Art Trail:

Since its inception in 2014, the Roundhay Artists Art Trail has been a wonderful celebration of creativity in the heart of Roundhay and typically attracts over 500 visitors.

This year, we’re particularly thrilled to expand and welcome guest artists from outside the group to exhibit alongside our talented members.

The event will take place over the early May Bank Holiday, with exhibitions in two local ‘hubs’ (St Edmund’s Church and Oakwood Church Hall) where visitors will be able to view and purchase unique artworks directly from the artists themselves.

We are looking for practising artists and makers working in a variety of mediums, including painting, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, illustration, textiles, photography, wood turning, stained glass, felt making, and more!

If you’re passionate about your craft and eager to connect with a diverse audience, we invite you to apply to be a part of this exciting event, though spaces are limited.

You will have a table, minimum size 1.5m x 0.5m and space for a portfolio holder and/or display space (but you will need to bring your own display boards). Space available may vary and can be negotiated.

Cost - £60 for the 3 days

Deadline -  2nd Feb. to be included in the publicity. All applicants will be informed of outcome by 10th Feb.
