A new creative space combining art, shade and cocktails has opened in Cowes – just in time for Cowes Week.
The Courtyard is an exclusive space brought together between local artists and Bar No.46, supported by local business Olesinski.
Located next to Bar No.46, The Courtyard invites visitors to step away from the crowds and discover a beautifully curated space celebrating local creativity. Guests can relax in the courtyard while enjoying local art, handcrafted cocktails, and a selection of refreshments – a space the artists involved say champions the Isle of Wight’s creative spirit.
Local artist and curator, Gail Willows, has said:
“Supporting our local high street and working entirely with Isle of Wight artists and businesses has been at the heart of The Courtyard from the start. We’re proud to showcase the incredible talent that exists right here in our community, and we’re so grateful to Olesinski for sponsoring this project and helping us bring it to life.”
The Courtyard will be open every day throughout Cowes Week, offering visitors a chance to experience something special alongside the world-famous sailing regatta.
Jack Anselm, owner of Bar No.46, adds:
“At Bar No.46 we pride ourselves on being a little hidden gem in Cowes — serving great coffee and fresh juices by day, and the wines, cocktails and drinks by night. It’s really special for us to collaborate with talented local artists on The Courtyard and bring something unique to the high street during Cowes Week.”
