Kristen, this is a pretty useful video overview of aspects of cost and related issues of NO Sewerage and Water Board drainage / pumping system. It even could be a useful tool to be incorporated into a future presentation especially if you can download and edit it down to shorter clips.

“ Porthmeor is currently configured with 15 artists’ studios, 12 of which are on long leases to allow artists the security to develop their practice, with 3 studios on short tenancies to provide opportunities for visiting artists or for local artists to carry out project work. The building also provides two studios each for the Trust and St Ives School of Painting for their respective programmes, three cellars for commercial fishermen, and one cellar is used to display The Maritime Artist, a site-specific installation by the American artist Mark Dion.
The Trust runs a year-round community programme based in the stunning Borlase Smart Room, boasting one of the best views imaginable. For most of the year, the rest of the building is private workspace used by artists and fishermen, but during the St Ives September Festival (12th-23rd September), the doors are thrown open and the public are encouraged to enter. Open Studios and guided tours give a taste both of its history and how it is used today, and there will be a full programme of arts, literature and heritage-themed talks and films, demonstrations of net setting and willow crab pot making, and some exciting performances – one of which starts on the beach and ends in a huge fishermen’s cellar. Not to be missed.

Porthmeor Studios: Past and Future - Artist's studio museum news and events - Watts Gallery Porthmeor Studios: Past and Future
Chris Hibbert, Manager at Porthmeor Studios, Cornwall, on balancing heritage with contemporary artistic practice in St Ives
The Grade II* Porthmeor Studios in St Ives, Cornwall has for over 130 years played a key role in the history of British art. This incredible heritage permeates through the whole building, but its main function is still to provide workspace for the current generation of creative artists, and there is a careful balancing act to ensure that history does not interfere with contemporary practice.
An artists’ complex on top of pilchard cellars
This remarkable building sitting in the centre of Porthmeor beach was built in the early 1800s for the St Ives pilchard industry, which was then the most important fishery in the whole of Cornwall. The cellars are still used by fishermen, and have changed very little since 1890. However it is now best known for its connection with artists, who have been here since the dawn of the St Ives art colony in the 1880s. This makes it probably the oldest artists’ studio complex in the country, but also some of the most important figures in British art have worked here, including Ben Nicholson, Patrick Heron, Terry Frost, Wilhelmina Barns-Graham, Roger Hilton, Peter Lanyon, Trevor Bell and even Francis Bacon.

Studio Museums - Watts Gallery Rebecca: There is something called The Artist’s Studio Museum Network. Check it out…..
“From Reykjavík to Cavtat, from London to Berlin and from Rembrandt to Bacon, studio museums are all over Europe.
Allowing visitors privileged access to the fascinating environments in which great art has been created, each and every one of these museums has its own unique story to tell. We have set up the Artist’s Studio Museum Network to bring these stories to a wider public, and to bring single-artist museums, house museums and studio museums across Europe closer together in partnership.
We will be adding new studio museums to the site regularly, and featuring information on research and projects of all kinds relating to the single-artist museum.
Above all, we want visitors to discover these places filled with the spirit and atmosphere that inspired their former occupants to produce some of the world’s best-loved art.
The Artist’s Studio Museum Network has been initiated by Watts Gallery - Artists’ Village, the former studio-home of George Frederic Watts (1817-1904) in Surrey, United Kingdom. It is run with support from the Tavolozza Foundation and the Heritage Lottery Fund.”
