Studio Tour Questions
An Open Studio Tour is when a group of artists and makers open their studios to the public. You can drive from one studio to the next to step inside and see where people work and meet them and talk about their process. You will meet your favorite artists in person.
What is an Open Studio Tour?
1
The quick answer is no, but we hope you will. We created a route that has an hour of driving time. It’s up to you how much time you spend at each studio. We will have some incentives for people to make it to as many studios as possible, but feel free to pick your favorites and start with those.
Do I have to go to all of the studios?
2
We create a map to give you a visual idea of the locations. The map on our poster does not have all of the roads and landmarks drawn, and is not meant to be an old style map with enough detail for you to get from A to B. We expect most people have a favorite navigation map that they can copy and paste the addresses into as they explore.
How does the map work?

Do I need to buy a ticket?

No! Our studio tour is free. We hope you will fall in love with someone’s work and purchase something from the artists. Each artist is their own entity and the tour does not take any commissions from sales the artists make on the tour.
Our mission is to bring together the vibrant community of artists and makers in Highland, NY and connect them with art lovers from near and far. By opening our studios to the public, we aim to showcase the diversity and richness of our local arts scene, and create opportunities for meaningful interactions between artists and their audiences.
We believe that art has the power to inspire, connect, and transform individuals and communities, and we are committed to promoting a culture of creativity and artistic expression in Highland. Through our open studio tour, we hope to foster a sense of belonging and mutual support among artists, and to encourage dialogue and collaboration across different disciplines and mediums.
Whether you are a seasoned collector or a curious newcomer, we invite you to join us on this journey of discovery and exploration, and to experience the joy and wonder of art in all its forms.
