Artisans Studio Tour

2024 Artisans Studio Tour, November 9 & 10, 10 am – 5 pm

On the second weekend in November, artisans in Central Virginia open their doors for you to explore their working spaces. Many visitors make the Tour a two-day experience so they can enjoy other offerings while in the area. What a great way to spend a fall weekend!

Easily accessed by following the map and directions on this site, the annual Studio Tour is self-guided, free, and open to the public. Most artisans will have demonstrations, either live or video, along with other educational displays. For frequent updates about the Tour we encourage you to follow us on Facebook and Instagram or subscribe to receive our email newsletter.

The Passport Program of the Tour gives you the opportunity to win shopping credit with a participating studio artisan of your choice. Simply pick up a Passport card at any studio during the weekend and receive a stamp from each studio you visit. Every visitor is eligible to win a $50 credit! Visit five or more studios for a chance to win a $300 credit!
