L'Atelier11 has been created to showcase the artwork of Iain Hodgkinson and Lindsey Graham supported by Christy Rickman.

We opened our space in the Summer of 2022 in Towcester. This historic market town is an attractive, thriving and accessible location in the heart of scenic Northamptonshire.

L'Atelier11 is designed as a warm and welcoming space where people can relax and enjoy viewing our selected works; alongside ceramics from favourite makers and those of featured artists.

We offer Special Events throughout the year.

Iain hosts year round Art Clubs as well as ad hoc Workshop Days.

We use environmentally friendly packaging including bags, stickers and cardboard bubble wrap.

It is important to us to reduce our carbon footprint.

Open Days

We are open on Thursdays and Fridays from 1 - 5pm.

We are CLOSED on Good Friday (29th March).

It is so refreshing to find a shop selling unique artwork - a big contrast to the overpriced, generic chains that sell 'art'. And right here in Towcester!

Art Clubs

L'Atelier11 organises and teaches weekly Art Clubs within our space.

The Clubs are very informal, friendly and welcome beginners or more established artists wanting to try new things.

Art Days

L'Atelier11 organises a programme of Art in the Watermeadows Days during 2024.

Enjoy a day of art in a beautiful location, within a small, welcoming group with a delicious lunch included.

About Us

Iain and Lindsey have known each other for over 10 years and have become close friends.

It really was a meeting of minds.

A similar approach to art likes and printmaking effects led them to support each other in their work and professional development.

They have exhibited together widely and far.
