    From its very beginnings in 2001 as “Open Doors”, Chichester Open Studios – Art Trail (COS) has established itself as an exciting event in the Chichester art event calendar.

    Chichester Open Studios – Art Trail currently includes the CityEastward, Seaside, Peninsula, Harbour and Downs areas which can be explored individually or as a whole. We are so fortunate to have such a vibrant and eclectic number of talented artists in this area.
