Late September

This annual event organized by the Peterborough Art Gallery has been a staple of the local arts community for more than 35 years.

The event invites the public into the studios of more than 30 participating artists living and working in the Peterborough area. This is a unique chance for art lovers to get an intimate glimpse into the artistic process involved in a myriad of mediums from sculpture, oil painting, ceramic, glasswork, printmaking, photography, and more.

The tour is self-driven and admission is free. Take advantage of this opportunity to meet and talk with the diverse artists working at a high calibre in the Peterborough and the Kawarthas.

The tour takes place in late September when the changing leaves make the drive from studio to the studio a sight of natural beauty as well. Check the AGP website for specific dates.
