Announcing our Sketch It! exhibition during March and the Creative Integration day on 5th April. We hope you can come to these exciting events!
Our garden and studios are open by appointment, please email to arrange a time.
Up and coming!
Sketches Please
We have gallery space for about 3 or 4 weeks and would very much like to have a sketchbook exhibition. If you sketch, no matter how spontaneously, send us up to three sketches to exhibit here until the end of March. Update – we have decided to use photos of your sketches rather than originals. Please send any submissions as quickly as possible, thanks.
There is no charge for exhibiting, small commission for sales. This is very sudden but it would be lovely to have your pictures by the end of this month – an opportunity which has suddenly occurred!

The Year of the Snake
Is the theme of Board 47 now on display outside Studio 36. Thanks to the 21st Exeter Scouts and other contributors.
The snake symbolises wisdom, transformation, and elegance, and people born in the Year of the Snake are said to be intuitive, observant, and calm. We hope you have a chance to see this.
Creative Encounters
On Saturday we had, with Inclusive Exeter, an introductory meeting with many migrants, now known as New Exonians. The enthusiasm of getting our different cultural approaches together towards a lively and interesting exhibition in the Spring was very rewarding.
An encouraging start to 2025!
Wishing You A Happy And Productive New Year!
We’re busy preparing our next board featuring work by 21st Exeter Scouts on the Chinese New Year. In the meantime the present board is still hosting great pictures from HMP Exeter. Don’t forget to let us have any positive comments as it is nice for the artists to get feedback.
And the kiln fires on!
Sunday at Studio 36!
Thanks to the many who came to an enjoyable Sunday at Studio 36 on November 24th!
Work by Ardyn Griffin, Clive Hurman, Uschi Arens-Price, Steven Bramble and Veronica Gosling was on show. Joelle and friends ran the café, serving tea, cakes and a variety of soups. Joe Skivington and Peter Farrie played live music.
Think Chair exhibition finale!
We had a very well-attended finale of our Think Chair exhibition in fine weather on Sunday featuring live music from the Plum Jam Jazz Quintet, Peter Nickol and Peter Farrie. Mary Bramble was here with her children’s trail and Joelle served tea and delicious food in the café.
Many thanks to everyone who came and made it such a fun event and also many thanks from Age UK Exeter whose Budding Friends project you donated to.

Why is the Studio 36 Board Important?
We are grateful to one of our board contributors Lynne Jessep for this piece. Be sure to click the ‘Read more’ link for the full text.
“Art has so many benefits. Culturally it enriches us. It can make us think deeply about things (Picasso’s Guernica speaks to us of the horror of war in a far more visceral way than, say, a news report for example) or Monet’s Water Lilies gives us tranquillity and connects us with nature and the restorative powers of a beautiful garden.
Art can bring communities together and give those who go unheard in society a voice…
