Ebor Studio a space for professional artists and designers to think, make, research, and show their work. Our purpose is to support the practice of our members and to contribute to the cultural life of our community – both local and further afield, by providing a programme of high quality contemporary exhibitions and events as well as opportunities for participation such as workshops and classes.

Our studio was originally built as 'Ebor Mill' in around 1870 as a small Victorian premises and has a rich industrial history. The mill is a four-story building and has been re-purposed to accommodate individual studio spaces, a gallery and well equipped workshop facilities. It is located as the Pennines edge at the North-West fringe of the Manchester conurbation. To read more about our history, click here.

The rear yard has been developed to provide further outdoor opportunities including workshops, events and including a community garden. We have an external billboard which provides another public platform for image display 24/7.
