JANUARY 2025 – Looking Forward to Creativity
Hey fellow artists (and art enthusiasts!)
It’s that time of year again – time to dream of spring while staying warm in our studios, get those creative juices flowing, and prepare for Open Studio Weekend!
Remember the buzz last year? All those artists opening their doors, sharing their passion across the state? Well, we’re trying to make this year even better!
Here is what happened in 2024.

What did artists say?
“I really enjoy sharing my studio with visitors. It is such a unique experience.”
“Great group of visitors, from a diverse area. Many newcomers to the OSW tour.”
“It is my way to connect with all my students across different places I teach. Love it!”
“It felt a bit quiet for me because I didn’t have much bandwidth to do my own promoting this year, but it was still a good experience (a clean house AND sold some originals!)”
What did visitors say?
“I love seeing the talents of the local artists. I also appreciate being given a map of the loop in the Bristol area.”
“We love meeting the artists and seeing their spaces.”
“I love the variety of different craftspeople!”
“I love talking to the artists about their process. How they do what they do, materials they use, where else they normally display and sell their pieces.”
