Welcome to the Sixth Annual
ARTrails Open Studio Tour
September 20-21 & 27-28, 2008
10am to 5pm each day

ARTrails of Southwest Washington will hold its annual open studio tour September 20-21 and 27-28, 2008. Plan to spend a day, a weekend, or maybe two meeting artists and seeing where and how they work. During this self-directed tour, which will take you throughout Lewis County, you can observe a variety of work in all stages of development — painting, printmaking, fiber arts, ceramics, glass blowing, jewelry, and much more.

ARTrails provides a rare opportunity for the public to meet artists in their studio/workplace and to observe techniques of work in progress. In addition, ARTrails seeks opportunities to promote the arts and the work of member artists through exhibits, workshops, and educational programs in coordination with area businesses, schools, and organizations.

Through all of these efforts, ARTrails promotes recognition that the arts are a significant component of Southwest Washington life and that many fine, dedicated artists live and work in the area. ARTrails is intended to aid and support artists while providing an inspiring and enjoyable educational experience for the interested public.
