Open Studio Tours Online!
Nov

to Dec 6

Open Studio Tours Online!

Open Studio Tours (OST) is one of the largest self-guided showcases of artist studios and creative work spaces in the region running for over 10 years. Throughout its history, OST has allowed Tucson and Pima County’s artists to invite visitors into their studios, free-of-charge, so they can directly engage with the working artists, see where art is created, and learn more about their artistic processes.

With OST going online, the intent and spirit of the event has not changed, but instead has been adapted to a virtual format.

Artists can upload descriptions, pictures and video of their artworks and studios and have the opportunity to host Virtual Studio Tours through Zoom during the event dates. By browsing the individual Artist Pages, visitors can still learn about and engage with artists, virtually visit studios, and purchase art directly from local artists in Pima County
