Registration for the Open Studio Tour is similar to past years, but we have made a few changes:

1. Increased square Brochure Image size: 300 dpi, minimum of 2500 x 2500 px.

2. Addition of a required second ‘Advertising Image”: any size between 1-3 MB, minimum 300 dpi.

3. App information/images (optional submissions) must be submitted at the time of registration.

4. Increased tour fee: due to the rising costs of printing and advertising, the tour fee for 2023 has increased to $300/artist.

To see all of the tour rules and requirements, please log in to the member area of our website and click on the Open Studio Tour or Call for Entries icon to learn more and download the prospectus.
