Cuckoo Farm Studios formed in 1992, in converted farm buildings on the northern outskirts of the historical town of Colchester. Since then it has grown to become a valuable resource within the wider community, through collaborative links with Colchester School of Art and Design, firstsite and Essex University. We support emerging talent through our Graduate Award Scheme, and we continue to develop artists through professional development.

One Artist Said to the Other…As part of Cuckoo Farm’s Conversations series, our associate artists and printmakers formed pairs or small groups to talk to each other through their art, creating fresh new work in paint, print, paper, collage and ceramics as part of their dialogue.
The exhibition runs until 22 June 21 and is open each Saturday and Sunday from 11.30 until 16.30 at the Benham gallery, Cuckoo Farm Studios
