OPEN STUDIO TOUR - Arts and Cultural Alliance Of Windsor Essex

An Update from Open Studio Tour Co-Chairs

While the Open Studio Tour takes a break in 2021, Co-Chairs, Marian Drouillard and Kristy Leblanc are working behind the scenes to create a joint City-County tour in 2022 that will be the most innovative and collaborative OST to date!

Scheduled for the end of September 2022, the Open Studio Tour will be designed to offer artists and artisans, many of whom currently work from their homes where space might be very limited, an opportunity to spread out and showcase their talents in venues that have not be considered until this year. We are hopeful you will love the opportunities!

That’s all we can reveal right now, and we promise to keep you informed as plans take shape. Please stay tuned!

Keep on Creating,
Marian Drouillard and Kristy Leblanc
