Although you don’t have to be a member to participate in workshops and events The Shop annual membership does entitle you to use the studio space during ‘Open Studio’ times (which run on a daily basis).
The Shop is a community-centred venture and has to fund-raise in order to pay for its own upkeep, utility and council tax bills. Membership fees contribute towards this.
Full membership is a minimum donation of £6 per year for OAP’s and is £12 for all others. It lasts for one year from the date marked on the membership card. We regret that we cannot offer membership to under 16’s although there will be special young peoples events and workshops.
Membership registration can happen at any time during the year.Download the membership form at the bottom of the page
