Chester

Our northern branch is set is the historic city of Chester. Surrounded by the Roman walls the Galleries, shop, studios and maker space are housed in Chesters oldest purpose built Art Gallery with a stunning mock-Tudor frontage.

There are lots of new courses at our Chester branch and the schedule keeps on growing. Check out the calendar for more details but book your place quickly as many are filling up well in advance.

The Maker Space is in full swing with late night opening every week so you can get in after work. You can book your inductions any day (subject to availability) on any of the equipment. For more details see the maker space page.


The galleries at #sixtyone have regular exhibitions. There are two spaces in the Tudor Gallery available to hire for two weeks at a time. Each provides 36ft of display area at least 8ft tall and are great for both solo shows and groups – see the tab at the side for the full Gallery calendar and check out the gallery hire page for details on how to hire the space.


The new integrated studios are fully operational and the Attic Aardvarks are in every day creating unique and wonderful things! If you would like to join them come and have a look round as there is a space available now. Daily support is available from experienced Artists and access to the onsite facilities.
