38TH ANNUALMUSKOKA AUTUMN STUDIO TOURSeptember 24-25 & October 1-2 2016 | 10AM - 6PM

Watch for the official signs with the Muskoka Autumn Studio Tour logo

CANADA’S ORIGINAL STUDIO TOUR TURNS 38!

The artists of Canada’s original studio tour invite you to explore Muskoka’s dramatic autumn landscape and to see where the past year’s inspiration has taken us.

This year, the tour features a variety of original, returning and new artists. Over the past 38 years, the Muskoka Autumn Studio Tour has seen a continued evolution, presenting only the finest professional artists and craftspeople working in Muskoka. There is always something new to discover, from well-designed functional items to expressive fine art. Everything you see on the Tour has emerged from the inspiration of the landscape and the skill of our members.

As professional artists and craftspeople, we often work in solitude. During these two weekends, we open our studios to share not only our finished work, but also the process behind it, through discussion, demonstration and display. Dedicated to the belief that a piece of art is best understood when the viewer can meet its creator, we are delighted to open our doors to the public.

Two weekends of discovery await you! We encourage you to visit your favourites, and to explore something new.
