Help us celebrate over 20 years
being one of Ontario’s most
prestigious studio tours.
The Perth Autumn Studio Tour combines
the traditional with the contemporary, and
has become part of Thanksgiving weekend
and taking in the fall colours of eastern
Ontario.
The artisans participating in the tour
are known for the quality as well as the
originality of their work. Traditional methods
are developed to new levels of creativity and
time-honoured tools and skills are used in
new ways. These craftspeople introduce new
materials and techniques to stretch the
imagination and continually renew their craft.
Every year, new artists join the tour bringing
new ideas, new ways of manipulating their
materials and creative ways to use old ideas.
The Tour is an excellent opportunity
to see the artisans’ workspace and
environment.
Fieldwork is an open-air, public
art space located across the road
from Studio 2. More information on
the project can be found at:
www.fieldworkproject.com
This year again we will be offering a gift
certificate worth $200. Win this prize
by filling in a ballot which can be picked up
at any of our studios. You can submit one
ballot per studio and drop it into any ballot
box. The winner will be picked and notified
after the tour.
We would like to sincerely thank our
customers for their constant support and
appreciative feedback over the years. Your
input is invaluable to us.
All exhibited work is for sale.
Please note that not all artists can
accept credit cards
