Artist Open Houses Brighton 2024
The StephieAnn shop is celebrating its second year in the Brighton and Hove Artist Open Houses! This year, I’m doing something new and have invited other local makers to join me for the festival. The Artist Open Houses happen every May in Brighton and Hove where nearly 200 artists open the doors to their homes, studios, and shops to the public every weekend in May.
Here’s some of my favourite houses from the festival. I recommend picking up a brochure locally from any of the houses, or downloading the map online. More info can be found here.
The Dog Show – no 3 on the Brunswick Trail
If you love dogs, you will love this house. The Dog Show has 14 artists with over 200 pieces plus tea, cakes and homemade dog treats!
