Cornwall Open Studios 24-26 MAY and 30 MAY-1 JUNE

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 for over twenty years artists and craftspeople have been opening their studios and homes free of charge to visitors from all over Cornwall, and much further afield.

As a visitor, you'll be able to experience our artists' studios, see their work, and talk to the creators themselves. Naturally, their work will be for sale, but there's no obligation to buy.

This year our new website and consistent opening times will make it even easier for you to get the most out of your open studios experience. • Designed to help you discover the artists whose work you'll like. • Search function with filters so you can find artists by name, discipline, and material. • An interactive map so you can also browse creators by area. • View up to sixty images of work by each artist or maker. • Find full details of title, materials, dimensions, description, and price of each piece of work. • Consistent opening days and hours for all COS Members to make it easier to plan your visits. • Detailed information on how to find each studio, including information about accessibility. • Opportunity to create a personal Visitor Account. • Search artists and select 'favourites' to help create your itinerary. • Facility to send enquiries direct to artists about their work, or to arrange an appointment. Have fun looking!
