The Studio Tour is a juried event. Each year the jury strives to achieve a fresh and interesting mix of new and returning artists and to include artists working in a variety of media. The only work that may be shown at any studio during the tour is that of artists accepted by the jury. At least 80 per cent of the work on display must be originals. No more than 20 per cent can be giclee prints or other mechanical reproductions.

New applicants should be prepared for a studio visit as part of the jurying process.
Applicants will be informed of the jury’s decision by mid-December 2013. A participation fee of $200 per artist is payable upon acceptance by the jury.

All participants/ studios must have personal liability insurance during the tour – house insurance alone does not provide adequate coverage.

2014 Organizing Committee: Kevin Bice, Chris Snedden, Doug Magrath, Corinne Garlick, and Beth Stewart.
