Holyhead Studios

Holyhead Studios operates as a not-for-profit printmaking studio inside a former Quaker meeting house on Lower Holyhead Road, a building that dates from around 1897 and was the first Friends Meeting House built in Coventry. Incorporated in 2016, the organisation provides affordable studio space to local visual artists alongside a screen-printing facility open to the wider public. Equipment includes an A0 and an A1 screen-printing bed, a wash-out booth and an exposure cabinet, all housed in a single shared workshop rather than spread across multiple sites. Printmaking classes and taster sessions run for people with no previous experience, and keyholder memberships give more established artists ongoing access to the presses. The studio sits close to Spon Street and the ring road, in a part of the city with a mix of small workshops and independent traders rather than chain retail.
