2012 Calaveras Artists Studio Tour is September 29 & 30
Calaveras artists are excited to welcome you into their homes and studios from which you can see and purchase their creations. Greet and talk 30 artists during the Calaveras Artists Studio Tour, Saturday and Sunday, September 29-30. The tour brings artists and art lovers together in relaxed and friendly environments where the various elements of art are shared and enjoyed. Artists will be on hand from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm on both days for questions and discussion as they “show their process” and reveal how, why and where they create their artwork. Purchase original art or prints or unique gift items directly from the artist...
The tour is self-guiding through the purchase of a $10 per person “Passport.” The passport is pocket sized and includes a color photograph of a sample of each artist’s work. The map inside the passport guides you to 11 different sites where artist work or display their art. You will travel through Calaveras County back roads and country neighborhoods in Arnold, Murphys, Angels Camp, Glencoe, Mokelumne Hill, and Mountain Ranch. Spread your trip over both Saturday and Sunday for a leisurely journey through the dramatic fall landscape. Simply pack up family and friends and discover that Calaveras art is as delectable as its wine and gold rush towns.
Each unique location will bring a satisfying experience that deepens our understanding of the importance of art in our culture.
