Cowal Open Studios: Welcoming New Artists & Makers

Event information

Contact via Facebook or web links below.

Type Art, Crafts & Design Learning & Classes

We are a group of artists and makers living and working on the Cowal Peninsula, in Argyll, Scotland. We volunteer our time and resources to make our event happen each year.

The many artistic forms represented include: painting, jewellery, pottery, glass, textiles, lino and collagraph printing, botanical printing, visual arts, photography, woodturning, tapestry weaving, collage and metalwork.

Over the years we have expanded to develop a creative approach to the year including two yearly exhibitions displaying the art of our members, plus another invited artists exhibition which runs in parallel to the open studio weekend.

We encourage creativity in the area through involving local school children and young people in an annual art competition and introducing our treasure trail to find artwork in  our local Free Art Friday event.

Enquiries and applications from new members are taken between September and February each year. New members are always welcome.  You also have the option to join as an associate artist at any time. Please contact us through this website,

We very much look forward to meeting you at our next open studio weekend.
