Devon Open Studios

About

Artists all over Devon are throwing open their doors and inviting people to look behind the scenes of an artist’s studio.

Whether you’re meeting your creative neighbours or visiting a new place, you’ll be able to experience the range of artistic talent Devon has to offer.

Over 300 artists are taking part in this year’s Devon Open Studios which takes place from 11 to 26 September, with a range of free exhibitions, workshops and opportunities to see artists at work.

The art and craft on display includes drawing, painting, sculpture, tapestry, ceramics, jewellery and glasswork. Artists range from new talent to experienced professionals, all keen to share their inspiration and creativity with visitors.

Devon Open Studios offers a fantastic opportunity to meet artists working in their studios in some of Devon’s beautiful locations. Visitors will be able to see artists’ work, watch demonstrations and take part in activities. Of course, there’s also the opportunity to buy, and it’s much more satisfying to purchase a piece of art when you’ve met the artist, seen them working and heard about their inspiration.

Devon Artist Network’s mission is to support the county’s artists and makers by organising events, exhibitions, family workshops and more. If you’re not able to visit the studios in person please have a look at the artists’ websites to find out more.
