Studio Share

Post date 2 August 2021

I am looking to share my studio from now until the end of the year. It is a three window studio, lots of natural light and uncluttered.

I am a musician and mainly use the studio for teaching and practising. Sharing with another musician, or similarly small scale music making would work well, but I’d be happy to talk to other artists who need a space to work in for a time too. I am interested in drawing, photography and video work as well, so get in touch if you are interested to have a look at the space.

Rent would be £115 a month, including all of the perks of being in the Palette – please contact me at kungflute@gmail.com to find out more.

Thanks!
