SUMMARY:Oxfordshire Artweeks Festival 2026
DESCRIPTION:Various venues across Oxfordshire\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n			\n				\n			\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Oxfordshire Artweeks Festival 2026\n\n\n\nCelebrating the county’s creativity \n\n\n\nThe Oxfordshire Artweeks Festival returns in 2026\, running from Saturday 02 May to Sunday 25 May\, offering three weeks of visual arts\, craft\, and creative exploration across the county. \n\n\n\nAs the UK’s oldest and largest artist open studios and pop-up exhibition event\, the festival showcases the remarkable talent of hundreds of local artists\, makers and designers. \n\n\n\nIn 2026\, the festival is split into three overlapping sections:  \n\n\n\n\nSouth Oxfordshire from 02 to 10 May\, \n\n\n\nNorth & West Oxfordshire from 09 to 17 May\, and \n\n\n\nOxford City from 16 to 25 May. \n\n\n\n\nWhether you’re wandering through historic streets\, ancient churches\, or glorious gardens\, Artweeks provides a chance to experience creativity in every corner of the county. \n\n\n\nExplore studios\, galleries and gardens \n\n\n\nArtweeks invites visitors to step into artists’ studios\, pop-up galleries\, medieval tithe barns\, private homes and sprawling gardens. You can see painting\, photography\, textiles\, sculpture\, ceramics\, glass\, mosaics\, jewellery\, woodworking\, and contemporary installations. Many artists offer demonstrations or encourage visitors to try their hand\, providing a rare opportunity to engage directly with the creative process. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Oxfordshire Artweeks\n\n\n\nOxfordshire Artweeks is the UK’s oldest and largest artist open studios and pop-up exhibition event. \n\n\n\nThe Artweeks festival is Oxfordshire’s largest visual arts festival and the UK’s oldest and biggest Open Studios event. It is a three-week not-for-profit celebration in May each year of the county’s artistic and creative talent encompassing the visual arts in their broadest sense. \n\n\n\nUsually\, around 1\,500 artists open the doors to their homes and studios or participate in pop-up exhibitions and welcome the public to see their creations and watch them work. Over 100\,000 people visit Artweeks exhibitions each year\, and a million pounds of art changes hands. \n\n\n\nIn previous years\, visitors have been able to immerse themselves in a giant wild-flower meadow of paint at Oxford’s North Wall\, marvel at shimmering glass meteorites in Kidlington or take a trip into the past with jewellery inspired by archaeology or the stunning mosaics by Becky Paton. \n\n\n\nVisitors could see traditional blacksmithing in Watlington and the Cotswolds\, take an outdoor art trail through Chipping Norton and wander through a stunning five-acre garden in Kingham near Chipping Norton populated with hundreds of sculptures. \n\n\n\nIn Burford\, there were extraordinary hand-sculpted wooden tables to discover\, each like a miniature tree. And in Shipton-under-Wychwood\, animal artist Nic Vickery set up her 1968 caravan studio ‘Gertie’ at a working metalwork studio in nearby Asthall\, where a metal forest grows! \n\n\n\nYou’ll find full details for Oxfordshire Artweeks Festival on the festival website. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important ticketing information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTicketing information\n\n\n\nAll venues are drop-in and are generally open between 11.00am and 6.00pm.
