Accessing Art with GEZE

The UK’s leading manufacturer of door and window control systems, GEZE UK, is backing regional artists and sculptors as they open their doors in September to help make art more accessible for the public.

With its headquarters in Lichfield, GEZE is sponsoring Staffordshire Open Studios for the first time, bringing its ethos of ‘accessibility for all’ to the annual event, aiming to bring even more people of all ages together to experience the best of the region’s talent.

Artists across Staffordshire will be opening their private studios to the public on 20 and 21 September and 27 and 28 September for families and art lovers to find out more about the talent and skills hidden in the region, see the artists at work, and ask questions in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Simon Bowden, Technical Director for GEZE UK added: “GEZE UK is delighted to support the region’s creative talent, which complements our work with architects to supply stylish and durable entrance solutions that enhance the appearance and accessibility of new buildings across the UK as well as promoting accessibility for all throughout the industry.”

Deb Walker, Chair of Staffordshire Open Studios and a participating artist, said: “This is a very successful, well attended event and we’re very grateful to GEZE UK, whose sponsorship has made it possible for us to make this year’s event bigger and better than ever.”
