2012 Labor Day Weekend, September 1st and 2nd, 10am to 5pm
The Lopez Island Studio Tour, presented by the Lopez Artist Guild, invites you to experience first-hand the quality and craftsmanship of the Island's many artists on Labor Day weekend, 2012. This will be the 16th year of inviting the public to open studios throughout the Island – come see where art happens. Visit the studios, enjoy meeting with the artists and discussing their visions and techniques. The Tour is an opportunity to purchase original works of art and to come away with insights to the artists and their community context. Shopping locally supports the local economy, as well as ensuring that artists thrive in this great Cascadia Pacific region.
Lopez Island
A Place Where Art Happens
Come and enjoy. The self-guided tour is free and accessible by car or bicycle. Information can be found at www.lopezstudiotour.org. Check out the directions and map. Hours are 10 am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday. Full-color brochures are available early in the summer – at the Lopez Island Chamber of Commerce, local galleries and shops, regional tourism and visitors centers, and can be downloaded from www.lopezstudiotour.org
Lopez Island – especially in early September – is a combination of sunny, pastoral farmlands, rugged shorelines, soft vistas and friendly folks everywhere. Lopez is the "Friendly Isle" where everyone acknowledges others with a smile, wave or both. A 40-minute ferry ride from Anacortes, Lopez Island has an abundance of art and artists along with shops, restaurants, and accommodations – a perfect place to celebrate summer and enjoy the holiday weekend.
