22nd Annual Open Studio Tour
Continues Tomorrow!

Whether you plan your route in advance, or simply drive along the picturesque country roads letting the blue signs guide your journey, this weekend’s Open Studio Tour is sure to be a delight. Here are a few tips to help you make the most of it!

Download our newly updated mobile app!

Our mobile app is a completely new experience for the 2025 Tour! It’s easily downloaded on your smartphone or tablet. It’s a free app that’s available through the Apple store or on Google Play. With more information on every artist, you can find and save the studios that interest you! The new keypad feature (located at the bottom of the app) will let you enter in a studio number if you want to quickly jump to learn more about a specific artist.

With the app, you can view the artists sorted into different categories (by date or town), find great spots to grab a bite to eat, visit the many galleries that will be open, learn about our sponsors, and even find the closest restroom! The new version works on the web if you’d like to view it on a computer instead. We suggest you take some time this week to view the app before the Tour and plan your adventure!

This digital feature allows you to easily navigate from place to place, from artist to artist and from town to town. Or, if you prefer, you can view or brochure online to find out about all the participating artists and their locations, or pick up a brochure from one of our many sponsor locations. You can also access all of this information, on our website. Whatever method you choose, you are in for a treat!

PLEASE NOTE: Saturday, August 16th The LC350 Parade kicks off at 11:00 a.m. starting at the junction of Peckham and West Main Road, continuing to Meeting House Lane, the Commons, and finishing at Richmond’s Field, 85 South of Commons Road. These roads (as indicated on our map) will be closed from approximately 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. (they will open back up as the parade progresses). Please consider alternate routes when traveling through the area.
