Bridewell Studios and Gallery

You will have the opportunity to examine a Grade 2 listed building which retains many original features from when it was a police and fire station. Now it is home to 34 artists and crafts people and there will be a chance to wander around parts of the building not usually open to the public.

This year there will be an Art Out Arts market on Saturday 7th September from 12 - 4pm in the Grand Parade Hall and during the second Heritage Open Weekend (14th and 15th) there will be an exhibition by David Jacques in one of the galleries.

Renovations are still actively taking place so come along and see how things have changed and progressed.

Refreshments will be available.

Location & directions

Bridewell Studios and Gallery, 101 Prescot Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, L7 8UL

Directions:

The front entrance to the studios is opposite the Royal Liverpool University Hospital chimney if you are walking or getting the bus (8, 9, 10, 10A, 10B). The buses listed all stop right outside of Tesco Express and we are next door. If you are travelling by car and wish to park by the building then access is via the back - put Prospect Street L6 1AP into the SatNav to provide instructions for getting round the back of the building to where our parking spaces are. Unfortunately there is no guarantee of a parking space and it is on the basis of first come first served. However there is a new parking site right next to our building with access to it via Prospect Street too so use the same postcode as above for this car park.
