Visitors to Noosa Shire are in for a treat as over 100 local artists open their private studios to the public for the next 10 days (October 6-15).
Now in its eighth year, the popular Noosa Open Studios art trail, gives a unique opportunity to meet local artists at work in their personal creative spaces.
From painting, ceramics and jewellery to textiles, glass and metalwork – there is something to appeal to everyone.
Noosa Open Studios president, Simone Leao, said artists had been working hard for months to prepare their studios and bring new work to the event.
“Noosa Shire has many dedicated creatives working away quietly during the year,” she said.
“Noosa Open Studios is a highlight on our artists’ calendars, and an opportunity for visitors and locals to meet our artists face to face – and perhaps even begin their own art collection journey.”
Simone said the artists look forward to this annual event, which provided an opportunity to share their work.
“All our participants have a piece of work on display at the event ‘Hub’ at Wallace House Noosaville, where visitors are invited to begin their art trail experience.”
“It’s the perfect starting point where you can collect an art trail guide to guide you through the amazing creativity on offer.”
Noosa Open Studios runs 6-15 October, with all studios open 10am-4pm on each weekend of the event.
During the week, the five trails will be open on separate days, to allow visitors to immerse themselves in a local area.
Take the opportunity to visit our hinterland and beachside communities as well as our small towns which offer food and dining experiences along the way.
The artists are looking forward to meeting visitors.
