About Artspace Oban

Artspace Oban is an independently owned and run workspace for artists and makers. The premises are part of the ground floor of a mostly residential Victorian tenement on Oban’s busy Corran Esplanade. They consist of 3 studio spaces, with kitchen and toilet facilities and access to a communal garden and drying green which is shared by other residents in the building. The large studio at the front is shared by 3 – 4 artists and includes a small retail space. One smaller studio is equipped as a natural dying and botanical printing studio. Depending on the needs of the Guest Artist/Maker space will be provided either in the large studio or in the dye studio.
