Five years ago, a group of artists asked me to organize a private studio tour for Ocean Shores. We had been wanting to form such an organization for years, but needed the right team to support the endeavor. And now we are celebrating our fifth year doing Art Splash Studio Tour of Ocean Shores.
Art Splash Studio Tour of Ocean Shores takes place every second weekend of August. There are usually 18 to 20 artists participating in the event with approximately 10-12 studio sites.
These artists work several months prior to the event to build up their inventory in order to present an exciting array of their art. We have, but not limited to, watercolor, pottery, glass fusion, oil, acrylic and wood carving artists.
The artists opens up their private studios for you to view their equipment and supplies. The Tour offers you an opportunity to see how various artists work and produce the finished product. Some artists will perform demonstrations of their work during the event. One artist may be working on a watercolor and another pulling hot molten glass from a specially made kiln. It’s an opportunity to see how the artist creates and produces an art piece.
Come get your art fix at the next event of Art Splash Studio Tour of Ocean Shores which takes place the weekend of August 12th and 13th, Saturday and Sunday, 10:00 AM-5:00 PM.
