We invite you to come meet the makers, creators, and entrepreneurs bringing new energy at the opening of Bridge Street Studios on Saturday 28th March. Bridge Street Studios, a NEW curated creative community of 20+ tenants in the heart of Nelson's CBD. The free open day invites Nelsonians to step inside, meet the creative minds behind the studios, and discover a new kind of destination in the city centre.
Anchored by Sublime Coffee Roasters and cafe, Bridge Street Studios is home to makers, designers, artisans, and small businesses working side by side in a space that's equal parts workshop, gallery, and neighbourhood hub.
The open day is a chance for the public to experience what makes Bridge Street Studios different: real people doing real work, happy to share their craft, their stories, and a few treats along the way.
