Wasps in Helsinki for Creative Land Trust Summit 2026
Wasps will join international leaders at the Creative Land Trust Summit 2026 in Helsinki to explore how permanent, affordable spaces can support artists and creative communities.
Hanson Street is a studio facility in Dennistoun, Glasgow. A former cigarette factory, the building was transformed by Wasps in 2001 to create 77 affordable artist studios, which today serve around 150 artists and makers, including the Glasgow Ceramics Studio and Glasgow Glass Studio.
Featuring a wide range of disciplines, the showcase reflects the diversity of the community and brings together both established and emerging talent.
Visit Hanson Street (77 Hanson Street, Dennistoun, G31 2HF) for the open studios event on 3 and 4 October, 11am–4pm.
