Are you an artist or maker in or around Hebden Bridge or the Upper Calder Valley creating visual art and craft?

Then you are welcome to join us. The only criterion is that your work is your own.

The deadline to open your studio in July and be included in this July’s brochure has passed. Until early April it is still possible to join as a full member, open your own studio in July and be added on the printed maps and website, but without a brochure listing. Contact us directly by early April if you have missed the application deadline and do wish to open July 4 – 6, as the form below is only for associate members NOT open in July.

Applications to take part in the December event, which is happening December 6 – 7 and possibly also December 5, will open in summer.

You can join as an associate member at a reduced rate, at any time.

There’s a list of reasons to join us as an associate member:

• A reduced rate for associate members not open during July 4 – 6.
• Your own page on our website all year with your contact details, links, more detailed information, images and videos.
• Support with the technical side of logging in to edit your page. It really is quite straightforward once you know how.
• Member access to behind the scenes artist only areas of the website.
• Informal social events for HBOS artists to network and discuss each other’s work and ideas.
• Opportunity to exhibit in our Town Hall exhibition June 16 – July 6.
• Opportunity to exhibit work in a Window Trail of venues throughout Hebden Bridge June 27 – July 6 (if applying prior to March 17).
• A reduced rate to take part in our Christmas event.
• Ad space in the July brochure at reduced artists’ rates

This form is specifically for artists NOT open for the July event, joining as an Associate only. If circumstances change and you do open you will then be liable for an additional fee of £30 plus commission of 10% on sales over £500.
