Many Studios Many Studios is a creative hub in the East End of Glasgow, providing a wide range of workspaces and a venue for hire.

Many Studios facilitates a dynamic, engaging, creative environment for its members and the public alike through our venue and studios provision. Many Studios is a creative organisation founded in 2010 as a not-for-profit business focused on providing affordable work and events space to artists, designers, craftspersons, and start-up creative businesses. We currently have forty unique spaces and ov

er sixty members at our Ross Street studios, including two shopfronts facing onto the historic Barras Market; as well as a gallery space currently home to the independent, artist-run, Market Gallery. We also have a bright, airy, accessible Events Space with large street-facing windows available for hire. Opposite the studios is our recent project the ‘Pocket Park’, a collaborative public city garden project developed with architects New Practice. Composed of a series of raised block planters, it offers a pocket of green within an otherwise urban environment.

📕 We’re excited to be able to share a wonderful new book that our team were working on in the background for quite a few years.

‘Delineate’ is an artist book project, produced by Natalia Palombo (Many Studios), Kayus Bankole, and Tiffany Boyle (Mother Tongue).

‘Delineate’ brings together texts, visual responses and poetry from writers, artists, curators, exploring the links between colonial-era cotton, linen, jute and paper trade in/through/via Scotland. Rather than separate histories with divided geographies, ‘Delineate’ seeks to make connections across materials, timelines and places otherwise often seen as unrelated, despite having Scotland as a common denominator. Across these contributions are shared queries, protests, returns to particular historical moments and visual strategies: from archival research and the use of collage or cut-and-mix, to family explorations across generations, looking to moments of radical industrialisation historically as a key turning point.

The book features work from Alberta Whittle, Cassie Ejezi, Chizu Anucha, Daisy Desrosiers, Irineu Destourelles, Swapnaa Tamhane, Tabita Rezaire/Olaniyi Studio, Tanatsei Gambura.

The project is funded by Edinburgh City Council, The National Lottery through Creative Scotland, Canada House and Hope Scott Trust. The publication was designed Musheto Fernández ().

The book is available to buy through Good Press - the link is now in our bio. We hope you enjoy it.

𝗪𝗲’𝗿𝗲 𝟭𝟬! (𝗮𝘁 𝗥𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁...) 🎈

Just over 10 years ago, officially moved into a building that we repurposed and retrofitted for artists in the city and further afield. Working with , we created 42 industrious workspaces, including a gallery/event space and three street-facing units, now hosting an independent gallery () and two small businesses ( and ). Over 20 artists joined us from our make-shift artist studios on Miller Street, and many artists have been with us the whole time (14 years!).

We don’t shout about our work a lot, but marking 10 years has been a fantastic opportunity for us to reflect on what happens here at Ross Street, and how important is has been to create a long-standing, independent creative place that supports artistic and cultural development in Glasgow. At the core of our work has been ensuring we can provide affordable, quality workspaces for creatives long-term, developing a model that supports the sector. But through that, we have consistently created exciting jobs, supported our membership in nuanced ways throughout their careers, and presented exceptional projects and programming for our local communities and for the city (including as ).

Keep an eye out for events marking 10 years at Ross Street throughout the year. You can also learn more about our services, studio members, projects and programme through the link in Many Studios’ bio.

Whats on at Many Studios Tonight?!

When everything’s starting to look the same, sound the same, and follow the same shortcuts, it’s easy to get swept up in that wave of sameness. Suddenly, you don’t sound like you anymore – and you’re not standing out. Lola Hoad from Good Call Studio is here to stop you drowning with her gift of a life jacket (in the form of a talk, workshop and Q&A at the next Jot).

Jot is a free event series for people who write – that’s anyone from copywriters, to emerging creatives, to social media managers, and beyond.

We’re really pleased to be hosting ‘aweys gaun’ by Zoë Zo, Zoë Tumika & Zoë Guthrie at Many Studios for Glasgow International 2026. ‘aweys gaun’ portals to a dream that drenches over and seeps through the stories of Western modernity, specifically the chapters leading up and dedicated to an enlightened Caledonia. Propelled by pleasure, curiosity, and ancestral rhythms, ‘aweys gaun’ honours the longstanding “hereness” of Black life in Scotland, calling and responding to, swaying with, the Black Atlantic hum.

Massaging the slippery matter of memory, Zoë Zo, Zoë Tumika & Zoë Guthrie presents a series of ceramic panels, vessels and works on paper along with an audio work made in collaboration with broadcaster, artist, and DJ Ashley Holmes ( ) and a newly commissioned text from curator, artist, and writer Żżo Charlery (

Zoë Zo, Zoë Tumika & Zoë Guthrie is a Glasgow-based artist who engages with clay and image (re)production. Frameworks from Black Feminism, geographies, and studies, and African cosmologies underpin their approach to narrative building and dismantling, listening and questioning, and exercising of liberatory practices. They are currently in residency at Glasgow Sculpture Studios. Their work has been exhibited at the Reid Gallery, Glasgow, London College of Fashion, Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art, and Chelsea Space, London. Zoë Zo, Zoë Tumika & Zoë Guthrie is a studio holder at Many Studios, based in industries building in the Barras Market.

aweys gaun is produced by Emmanuella Damptey and supported Many Studios, Glasgow Sculpture Studios, National Lottery through Creative Scotland, Stuart Hall Library & Iniva.
