Astoria is a stupendous place to live, in large part because of the abundance of artists that are drawn here. The 10th annual Astoria Open Studios Tour highlights a number of those artists, and although the event will not take place in the traditional self-guided tour due to the pandemic, artists will still open their studio doors to the general public virtually through videos that will be available to view July 25 - August 30.

Each video is roughly 1-5 minutes, documenting a moment in time in an artist’s life in 2020. Some talk openly about their art practice, what inspires them and where they want to go with their art in the future. Some have produced their own artistic video expression. Twenty professional and emerging artists are featured and just like the normal tour, everyone, all ages, can enjoy this free public production, getting to meet the makers and see a close-up view of their techniques and media. 

Also don't miss the AOST exhibit at AVA, July 11- August 2, open Fridays and Saturdays from 12:00 – 4:00pm.

Astoria Open Studios Tour is sponsored by the City of Astoria.
