Prescott Area Artist Studio Tour

The Prescott Area Artist Studio Tour will return over the weekend of October 4-6, 2024, offering attendees an opportunity to visit with 74 juried artists across 53 private studios (as well as additional artists in four Art Centers), observe their creative processes and purchase one-of-a-kind works of art. The Tour, which will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day, will showcase many different artistic mediums — ranging from painting and ceramics to jewelry and glass — in locations throughout the Prescott/Quad-City area. Attendees of this free, self-guided event may begin at any location and visit as many studios as they like. For detailed information and maps, visit http://www.PrescottStudioTour.com.

Each year, attendees of the Prescott Area Artist Studio Tour report that one of the most intriguing aspects is the opportunity to observe artists as they actively demonstrate their craft. This experience allows attendees to learn about the materials, techniques and processes used in creating a work of art, while forging a personal connection with the artists.

Most artists on the Prescott Area Artist Studio Tour will be raffling one of their works. Raffle tickets may be purchased and used at any Tour location. Proceeds from ticket sales will be used to fund art programs for children in the Quad-City area as well as next year’s Tour. The winning tickets will be drawn at each location after 4 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 6.

The Prescott Area Artist Studio Tour is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that strives to educate the public about how and why artists create their work. Supported in part by the City of Prescott, the Prescott Area Arts & Humanities Council and the Arizona Commission on the Arts, the Tour also fosters an appreciation of the arts and promotes art education.
