JOIN OUR COMMUNITY OF MAKERS AND ARTISTS
The Old Print Works offers a range of large and small workspaces and studios in Birmingham for makers and creatives. Our spaces are diverse and unusual with many interesting features from our building’s former days as a manufacturing centre of transfers for branding.
We encourage engagement with the local community through learning, making and sharing practical knowledge and skills. We hold regular events for our Studio Partners to meet, and there have been many examples of cross-fertilisation and collaboration, which we love to see. All unit holders have access to shared lunch rooms, our backyard garden and courtyard, as well as large shared spaces available for temporary use.
We are well placed in the creative centre of Balsall Heath, right next to the refurbished Moseley School of Art building, and just across the road from the Moseley Road swimming baths and library. A growing centre for creativity and localism, we are founder partners in the monthly mini-festival Balsall Heath Second Saturday, a great opportunity for our Studio Partners to engage with the local community.
“I’m sad to leave as it’s the best studio I’ve had in Brum”
“The vibe of the place is wonderful and rich with inspiration”
“The unit has been such an asset to our practice and we’d like to think that we’ll be back one day. Thanks for making our stay really enjoyable, and the community spirit you have at The Old Print Works is something special.”
Spaces Currently Available
We have a few spaces available which you can see below. If you are interested, please fill in the FORM BELOW or PHONE 07410 442 334. It is not always possible for us to show you around if you just turn up at the door, so do please contact us first. UNFORTUNATELY WE CANNOT ACCOMMODATE MUSIC RECORDING STUDIOS.
All units are let on a monthly licence basis. We may be able to offer a small discount if your activities help us fulfil our charitable objectives, or to help with set-up.
There is a variety of sizes and prices - ranging from 3.6m2 to 64m2 and from £110 to £400 per month, plus a services fee of £70-100/month (including high-speed internet). Unfortunately we do not currently have a lift so spaces not on the ground floor are not wheelchair accessible.
If you want to hire a space for a one-off event or on a sessional basis, have a look at oldprintworks.org/space-hire.
