Apply now to the 27th citywide annual art studio tour!
Portland, Oregon artists interested in opening their studios to the public for the second and third weekends in October are now invited to apply to participate in the 2025 Portland Open Studios Tour.
All applications will be submitted to a professional jury panel for a blind review and ranking. The top scoring artists will be invited to join the tour, this year on Oct. 11, 12, 18 and 19.
During the tour, thousands of visitors traverse the city to meet and watch artists at work in their studios. It's a fantastic way to meet new patrons, sell artwork, and make important community connections!
Art studios must be within Portland city limits.
Participation fee is $250 (plus a $25 application fee). The program includes:
- Promotion through our website with a personal artist page for each participating artist, as well as promotion through our social media accounts;
- Two different scholarships* available to young emerging artists and artists from historically marginalized communities;
- Two artist meetings providing tour information, tips and connections to other participating artists in your neighborhood.
*Fees waived for exceptional artists who are awarded either the Kimberly Gales Emerging Artist Scholarship, or the Molly Cliff Hilts Scholarship for Historically Marginalized Artists. Click on the links for more information, and go to the application to learn whether you qualify!
