Register for Artists Studio Tours
The Calaveras County Arts Council invites you to participate in the Calaveras Artist Studio Tours, which takes place over one weekend in September each year, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.

​Artist Studio Tours gives artists the opportunity to develop relationships with new customers, make sales, secure commissions and share their artistic process and vision with visitors. It's a chance to let others to meet you and see your art in a personal setting.

The tour is free to the public, and visitors create their own self-guided tour using the printed or downloadable brochure. 


Benefits of participating
  • Inclusion of one photo of your artwork, your name, address and website included in a brochure with a map of the event
  • Inclusion of 3 artwork photos and your profile information on our website for one year
  • Inclusion in our Social Media campaign, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, 
    plus a print campaign in local newspapers. 
  • Consideration for an interview for media releases and for artists profiles on the CCAC blog.
  • Advice on how to make your open studio successful.
  • Large pink signs with arrows and the Artist Studios logo to guide visitors to your studio.

You may host the event in your own home or studio. We are encouraging grouping up, so that no one is left alone unless desired; it's more fun with multiple artists and visitors like seeing multiple artists at each site.  If you are hosting an Open Studio, limit the exhibition to your own work and the work of other Open Studio participating artists. There is a maximum of 6 artists per location, including host. All participating artists must pay the application fee; please do not invite artists who have not payed the application fee.  

This year we will be exhibiting the artwork of participating artists at the gallery in San Andreas.


Community outreach
We plan a robust advertising campaign in print and social media that will include:
  • A brochure featuring participating artists with a map to the artists’ studios and display spaces. Each artist will receive 10 brochures to distribute. Additional brochures available to individual artists at an additional fee. 
  • A website listing participating artists with three images of their artwork, their biographies and artist statements, and outward links to their websites and social media.
  • Regular facebook posts profiling artists (This is contingent on involvement of the artists).
  • A Social Media campaign, including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
  • Posters available to be posted in Calaveras as well as Tuolumne and Amador County (We’ll need help posting these!)
  • Post cards mailed to CCAC mailing list. 
  • Advertising in the Sierra Lodestar (if funds allow)
  • Press releases made available to all local and out-of-area news outlets.

We look forward to your participation in this event, and we will do all we can do to help you make it a successful  weekend.
