Portland Open Studios offers a unique and inspiring form of experiential education: interacting with local artists at work within the context of their studios. All around metro Portland in an annual tour of studios, visitors can see up-cycled wearable fashion, watch molten glass or fine porcelain stretch into a vessel, imagine a landscape moments before it is painted, peer through layers of silk-screened band posters, and much more.
Art lovers of all ages and walks of life can discover new materials, learn about ancient techniques, and share the wonders of creativity with friends and family. Have you always been curious about what moves an artist to work in the way that they do? Let the artists of Portland Open Studios indulge your curiosity.
A $15 Full-Color Tour Guide comes with images of artworks, coupons, and an opportunity to win prizes. Included is a fold-out map with contact info and directions to the studios which is your ticket for two adults (children under 18 free).
A $5 map-only ticket is also available, with directions and contact information for all artists.

Such perfect timing. I’m trying to bust out of an ‘inspiration fog’ and could use an injection of Portland’s art and creativity culture. Spending a day enjoying a visual feast would be like chicken soup for me. I would love a pair of tickets :)
