About

We are a community of creative people based in and around Woodstock, Oxfordshire.

Our purpose is to connect our community through creativity.

Artweeks

For Oxfordshire Artweeks 2024 we brought the community together around ‘Art, Mind & Soul’ with a mix of exhibits and events. Take a look

We’re preparing for Artweeks 2025 right now.

What our members love about our being in our group…

“Having lived and worked in Woodstock for 40 years, it’s wonderful to finally have a thriving artists’ community here.” Rod Craig 

“Having recently moved to Woodstock its Artists in Woodstock has provided the opportunity to meet new people and celebrate the creativity in our community. ” Hannah Cushion 

“Being a part of the Woodstock artist community has been incredibly inspiring for me as an Arab/Iraqi artist. The support, creativity, and collaboration before and now  ‘Art on Conflict’ exhibit have brought so much joy to my work and fueled my passion every day. I feel so lucky to be surrounded by such talented and welcoming artists who genuinely lift each other up. Thank you to everyone who makes this community feel like home!” Rana Ibrahim (Iraqi Women Art & War)

“Who knew that Artists in Woodstock would open so many doors: friendship, support, camaraderie and a sense of community. It's wonderful to be part of it.” Jane Topliss  (Jets Pottery)


“Artists in Woodstock has reignited my Grá for art—a mindful and calming pursuit that offers a much-needed contrast to the fast-paced, screen-heavy world of work. Grá, the Irish word for love, perfectly captures how I feel. As an Irish woman living in beautiful Woodstock, I'm continually inspired by the area's nature, sweeping country views, and historic architecture, all of which bring fresh depth to my work. Creating art has become a mindful practice, and the camaraderie with fellow artists from diverse backgrounds and media makes this journey even more rewarding.” Sarah Cunningham  (The Lino Centric)

"What I like most about Artweeks and ths group is how it's truly made me feel a part of the Woodstock community" Jean-Pierre De Rosnay 

“Artweeks has enabled me to meet lots of other artists which has been fantastic. The support all the Artists in Woodstock give to each other is invaluable and I’m so glad to be part of the group.” Louisa Foster

“Artweeks in Woodstock played a big part in encouraging me to paint and I'm very grateful for that.” Gleide Reid

“When I had the thought ‘I wonder if I can find a few artists to do Artweeks with me’  little did I know how this community would grow! I am so glad that I had that musing, I think we all sprinkle some magic creativity dust on one another. I’m really proud of everything this group has achieved, in such a small space of time.” Caroline Parkes

“I love the diversity of the community - it embraces such a fantastic range of different media and practices.” Jane Greer 

" I have lived in Woodstock for 22 years and exhibited in Oxfordshire Artweek for years but have always wanted to be part of a bigger supportive, creative community, which we now have, which is great.” Jane Smith 

“The Artists in Woodstock are such a warm, lovely group. It’s great to have a Woodstock collective and feel the support and friendship of fellow artists.” Caroline Gibson

“It has been interesting to chat to people about their approach to creativity and to hear about their aspirations.” John Somerscales
