ILKLEY ARTS OPEN STUDIOS WEEKEND | 17 & 18 OCTOBER
This weekend, artists across Ilkley and the surrounding area are opening their studios, homes and workspaces to the public for Ilkley Arts Open Studios 2026.

It’s a chance to meet the artists, see where and how they work, discover the creative processes behind their paintings, ceramics, jewellery, textiles and printmaking, and perhaps find something special to take home.
And Ilkley Manor House is part of the weekend too!
We have two exhibitions to explore, including one that’s coming to an end this Sunday.

🌊 CONDUiT – Wharfespeed | Western Gallery
This is your last weekend to see Anji Timlin’s extraordinary large-scale paintings of the River Wharfe, exploring the river, its changing character and our connections with it.
Anji will be here on Saturday 17 October, so it’s also an opportunity to meet her, ask questions and hear more about the work directly from the artist

🎨 A Path Well Travelled | Solar Gallery
Featuring work by around 30 local artists, this exhibition explores journeys, memory, landscape and the experiences that shape us, through painting, printmaking, ceramics, glass, jewellery and drawing.
The exhibition continues until 15 November.

Planning your Open Studios route?
A good place to begin is the Ilkley Arts Studio, right here in the Manor House Courtyard, which is the official Open Studios Hub.
You can pick up information about the participating artists and plan your route before setting off.
There’s also an online map and a printable guide to help you find your way around.
👉ilkleyarts.org/openstudios
And while you’re in Castle Yard, make Ilkley Manor House one of your stops! And don’t forget the Tinker Gallery is just across the road from the arch too.

Saturday 17 & Sunday 18 October
Manor House open 11am–4pm both days
Castle Yard, Ilkley
