If you are an art lover looking for creative and interesting people and places, then a cornucopia of art will be waiting for you across Devon again this September. Over 300 resident artists and crafts people will open their studios to show and sell their individual artworks to the public. Explore a diverse range of venues from potter’s studios in meadows to medieval barns, sinuous sculpture gardens or garrets by the sea. These hidden havens reveal fascinating work in every medium that allows the opportunity to purchase unique and affordable art, directly from the artist.

Venture out on self guided art tours using our free full colour event guide or just by spontaneously following the yellow arrows scattered about the countryside.
