About the Business
We are an artist-led studio gallery project in the old part of St Ives, traditionally the home of the artists' colony. Initiated by Doris Lindemann it aims to create a space where we, eight well-known St Ives and West Cornwall artists, can make and sell our work together, independently of commercial galleries and agents.
Due to the economic downturn of the last few years plenty of artists lost their places in galleries that, in many cases, had represented them for long years, as galleries had to close due to loss of business or retirement.
To us the obvious solution was to look for a practical and affordable way of selling our work out of our own studios. This meant we needed to find studios that are likely to get a retail licence and are in an area with good footfall - a major challenge in a town where property is at a premium!
