Hopewell Studios are proud to offer a vast array of quality classes from photography, painting, drawing and floristry to dance - all led by industry experts with years of experience. Classes are held throughout the year in one of our two newly refurbished studios, in a beautiful converted barn on a working farm in rural North Yorkshire. Our studios also boast a state-of the art dark room for traditional photographic processing and a secluded private woodland for outdoor classes.
Hopewell Studios offers an array of top quality facilities for hire including a 42.5m² photographic studio, dance studio with a sprung floor, and the newly refurbished, highly equipped 71.5m² Studio 2 equipped with tables, artists easels, state of the art presentation equipment, a 4k UHD projector and large screen.
We also have a dedicated meeting room, with high speed wifi and a state-of the-art 4k UHD projector, combining the luxuries of a high-end corporate setting, with the character of a building steeped in history and charm.
