The Art Hostel

Once nested on the characterful street of Kirkgate we proudly propped the door open to thousands of people worldwide visiting Leeds. With each room offering an insight into a different artists mind it acts as a brilliant portal directly into the underbelly of Leeds’ creative scene.

Throughout the growth of the Art Hostel we’ve had the pleasure to commission and work alongside a broad range of artists – Precious Collective, Kamiel Verschuren, Drew Millward, Edwin Li, Leeds Hackspace and Hannah Stacy to name a few.

After a thriving couple of years at our temporary home of Kirkgate we’re now extremely excited to be making the move across the city to our new permanent place in our already beloved Mabgate. Where big transformations are currently happening to the former Presbytery building. Fancy seeing how we’re getting on? (link to Jons ‘completing the AH’ article).

As well as guests the Art Hostel has been home to an extraordinary, ever changing team of volunteers. We’ve hosted people from far and wide offering them an unique way to live and work here Leeds. A beautiful exchange of time for experiences, lasting memories and friendships that’ll last forever. Fancy becoming a part of our friendly Art Hostel family? Do get in touch.
