What a week it’s been at Artisan! ❤️
It’s been a busy weekday schedule this week, and every event has reminded me why I love what we do.
🕊️ Tuesday saw us host a beautiful Celebration of Life, where family and friends came together to remember someone very special.
⚽ Wednesday brought England’s incredible attacking display as they put in a fantastic performance to beat Croatia, the bar was just perfect with enough in to keep the atmosphere , while being relaxed enough to watch the game .
🪩 Thursday was, without doubt, one of the most rewarding shifts I’ve experienced in nine years of running Artisan.
We were honoured to welcome guests for a Disco Extravaganza celebrating Learning Disability Week 2026, with around 60 people from across the neurodiverse community joining us for an evening of music, dancing and pure joy.
And let me tell you… this definitely wasn’t a cordial and a bag of crisps kind of night! The dancefloor was bouncing from start to finish, the energy was infectious, and there were smiles everywhere you looked. 💃🕺
A huge shout-out to my good friend Victoria who worked tirelessly to pull the whole evening together and was the heartbeat of the party from the moment the doors opened. 🫶
Hospitality is about much more than serving drinks. It’s about creating a space where everyone feels welcome, included and free to be themselves. Thursday night was exactly that, and I’m incredibly proud that Artisan could play a small part in making it happen. ❤️
Now let's bring the weekend on but I'll be honest I am taking a back seat to rest up and spend some time with my boy , have a great weekend everyone 🫶 Jason .
