What you'll see

The Artists’ Studios at Chiswick House & Gardens were created in 2025 from historic outbuildings and stables around the beautiful and productive Kitchen Garden. Home to 23 artists from a wide variety of disciplines, these fascinating new spaces are open to the public just twice a year.
Drop in to discover the private workspaces of this inspiring group of artists. Meet the makers, learn about their work, take part in drop-in workshops and enjoy a little shopping. You will also be able to explore the Learning Hub, a brand new building for the community right in the heart of the gardens.

Visit the Kitchen Garden – sitting right at the heart of grounds is our 17th century walled Kitchen Garden, a beautiful productive space where visitors can wander, buy fresh flowers and produce and take part in drop-in workshops;
Visit Chiswick House – a Neo-Palladian architectural marvel designed by two Georgian trendsetters, William Kent and the Earl of Burlington, replete with ornate details and striking works of art (free but booking required);

Visit the Gardens – created at the same time as the villa, the gardens at Chiswick House are the first English landscape garden and hold a special place in this history of garden design and architecture. From historic monuments and hidden pathways there is something to discover round every corner.
