A free to attend, juried studio art tour with interactive visits and behind-the-scenes experiences.

Portland Open Studios runs a free yearly juried art studio tour, creating a unique educational opportunity for the public to witness art in the making, meet the creators behind it, learn about media and materials, and shop for beautiful handmade artwork, thereby directly supporting local artists. Through these interactions, Portland Open Studios creates a platform for artists to thrive and fosters a community that values and supports the arts.

The tour usually includes at least 100 studios across nearly every city neighborhood. The popular tour is visited by thousands during the second and third weekends of October, all eager to experience art being made right in front of them. Their ethos of "meet the maker" meshes well with the values of our creative, experience-driven city.
