Cornwall Open Studios

    Cornwall Open Studios: A New Chapter for Artists in 2025 and Beyond

    Cornwall has a rich artistic heritage, and our creative County is home to Tate St. Ives, many other arts and culture venues, and a wealth of galleries.

    So, it’s hardly surprising that since 1998 artists and craftspeople have been opening their studios to visitors from all over Cornwall, and much further afield.

    Discover the vibrant creativity of Cornwall Open Studios, a free event offering unique artist encounters, easy parking, and warm hospitality.

    Entry to Cornwall Open Studios is free of charge. Parking is usually easy and often free (you can check with the artist in advance to be sure). And you might even be offered a tea or coffee!
