Astoria Open Studios Tour Rebounds for the 12th Year

Explore Astoria’s creative side during the 12th annual Astoria Open Studios Tour, July 30 and 31 from 11:00am to 5:00pm each day. Fifty five artists will open their studios to the general public during this is a free, family friendly event. Printed tour guide booklets featuring each of the artists are available throughout downtown Astoria and a digital, interactive version can be found at astoriavisualart.org.  Some studios are offering demonstrations, some are requiring artists, so please come prepared.  

Open Studios is a popular and fun event for visitors, locals and anyone interested in meeting creative people.  “There are many new faces and places this year,” says Tour Coordinator Annie Eskelin, “New fiber artists, sculptors, mixed media artists, a garden studio—I’m really excited to get a chance to see their art and workspaces. I also love reconnecting with artists that join Open Studios each year. Everyone is really friendly and excited to share their latest work.”

The Astoria Open Studios Tour made possible through support from the City of Astoria and AVA members. AVA is a 501(c)3 non-profit arts organization founded in 1989 that works to enhance, strengthen and promote the arts in Greater Astoria.   

Printed tour guides can be picked up around town or at any participating studio, or you can use your phone or tablet to access the “INTERACTIVE TOUR GUIDE” which will be available in July.
