A community of 35 artists based at Paradise Works in Salford will open their studios over a weekend of exhibitions, events and subversive disco. Open Studios 2019 will celebrate Paradise Works’ third birthday with the launch of ‘Multiples’ – affordable contemporary art from studio artists and friends – and new exhibition, Millennialism, which explores the experience of a woke generation through new works by ten up-and-coming visual artists.

Head over on Saturday 12th October for the free launch party, with street food, a donations bar and English Disco Lovers’ DJ set from artist Chris Alton (6-10pm). Then join producer and artist Carly Bainbridge on the Sunday for the ‘Hangover Cure Tour’ – a whistle-stop tour of Paradise Works, featuring selected artists’ studios (12.30-1.30pm).
