INTRODUCTION

 

We have been welcoming artists, writers and other creative people to Cyprus, and providing work space for them here, for over 40 years.

 

Historically most have come from Britain, North America and Europe, but we are an open environment, so welcome artistic people from all over the world.*

 

Our environment and studio space is low tech, so any technical equipment you will have to provide yourself. There is internet (WiFi) access in the studios, but basically we just offer studio space for you to work in a stunning location, the village of Lemba near Paphos town.

 

LEMBA VILLAGE

 

Lemba is very rural and in many ways a primitive place in which to make art. We have welcomed some very great artists to use the space over the past 40 years, including figures like Terry Frost, Euan Uglow and Rachel Whiteread, but there is nothing fancy or posh about the place. It is picturesque in the true sense of the word, a bit ramshackle and a working environment for real artists rather than dilettantes.

 

Lempa is located on cliffs overlooking the sea, and the small town of Paphos is about 3 miles away.

 

It is not suitable for everyone, as it is not a luxurious place in any sense (as we say primitive!) but the cost is very low and the stones of Lemba exude the long history of the place as a creative environment made by artists for artists.
