Bright yellow signs compete with a multitude of greens along Vermont’s roads enticing visitors to the studios of craftspeople and other artists across Vermont during the 2019 Spring Open Studio Weekend taking place over May 25 & 26, Memorial Day Weekend from 9:00 – 5:00 pm both days.
Open Studio Weekend is a statewide celebration of the visual arts and creative process, offering a unique opportunity for visitors to meet a wide variety of local artists and craftspeople in their studios, and purchase high quality, hand made artwork.
The self-guided Open Studio tour features the work of glassblowers, jewelers, print makers, potters, furniture makers, weavers, iron workers, painters, sculptors, quilt makers and wood carvers. Many participating galleries will host gallery talks and feature special exhibits in conjunction with this event.
Grand Isle art Works is hosting the artwork of several Vermont artists for this weekend event. Plus there is our usual fabulous artwork created by over 70 Vermont artists. Right around the corner (sort of) you will find gallery artist, Sherry Corbin set up at her own clay studio in South Hero on 16 Remple Road. Grand Isle is the place to be!
