All artwork must be consistent with that submitted for judging.
All artwork must be available for sale.
Only goods/services relating to an Tour Artist’s artwork may be for sale during the Tour. No unrelated art items, manufactured, or commercial goods may be exhibited or sold. The Tour is intended to be a showcase for original artwork.
Locations on the Tour must be artists’ personal studios and may not be galleries which exhibit multiple artists or retail spaces that sell items other than the artist’s artwork or goods related to it.
All Tour Studios must be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and the Artists must be present during all three days of the Tour.
Jury Criteria The Studio Tour is a juried event, and the images you submit of your artwork are judged using the following criteria:
The artwork indicates a consistent technical proficiency with the medium and demonstrates an understanding of formal elements of art.
The artwork reflects a coherent individual style and originality.
The artwork is representative of what you have created in the last two years and will have available during the Tour.
If Accepted
You may choose to be in your own studio, be a host studio for other juried artists, or be included in another host studio. Details are in the application.
If you need a studio for the Tour, the Tour Committee will help you find one.
Tour Studios with more than one artist receive substantially more visitors than studios with only one artist. Therefore, we encourage artists to band together whenever possible.
