We invite you to have your voice heard in this update to our surveys into Artists Workspace needs.

Over the past two years we have been conducting research into the supply and demand for workspaces cross the country. Last year, over 700 artists participated in the survey where we asked about their current and future needs. We wish to update this information and see what the current demand is country wide. The purpose of this, in combination with other surveys and research, is to provide a report, which has been commissioned by the Arts Council, with an overview of the current supply versus demand and the status of studios and artists’ needs.

We understand that you may not need a studio, may currently be satisfied with your current set up, or are actively looking, and so we ask that you fill out the survey to best represent your own current and future need.

The survey will take around 10 – 20 mins max.
