    Great exhibition space, always something on to look at with a wide variety of artists putting their pieces up. Lovely shop with artist cards and pieces available to buy. Studio spaces in the building aswell as toilets. Just a great place to pop in and visit for an arty fix.

    Wonderful place full of creativity and friendly faces, only let down by the difficulty with the accessible entrance. I love this place, I came here as a student when it was part of Chesterfield College and it was great to see it done up and improved for the use of local creative persons and businesses. I still come here often to take part in courses, classes and exhibitions held by the local artists and it has a wonderful atmosphere that seems to encourage creativity. It is almost entirely on one level and has wheelchair accessible toilets and an accessible entrance to the right of the main entrance. The car park also has a disabled parking bay. My only issue with West Studio's is that the wheelchair accessible entrance is often locked and even if the outer door is open the inner door requires a keycard. So if you are a wheelchair user and come alone then you can not get into the building without hoping someone is around to let you in or you catch someone heading in or out of the main entrance. It would be a great help if they added at the very least a doorbell to alert the staff you were there or an intercom system much as they have on the gate to the car park so someone could let you in remotely. Thankfully there is usually a member of staff looking out for me if I'm booked onto a class but when I have turned up to view galleries I have had to mill around outside waiting for a random stranger to come in or out that I can ask to alert the staff I need assistance.
