Open Studios 2024

Embark on an artistic journey with the 17th annual Artmap Argyll open studios trail. This year you have a fantastic choice of 58 studios and venues celebrating creativity across the region, from Onich in the north to Carradale near Campbeltown in the south. This is the most extensive range of studios we’ve ever hosted. All the artists are members of Artmap Argyll and there are ten new studios taking part for the first time.

This map shows artists who are taking part in the Artmap Argyll 2024 Open Studios from Saturday 17 to Monday 26 August 2024. Use the map to view the profiles of the individual artists, find out when they’re open and plan your route. Different mixes of studios are open on the first weekend (17 and 18 August), midweek (19 to 23 August) and the second weekend (24 to 26 August).

Use the Find Artists button on the map to show studios that are open today, specific locations and different artistic fields.

Plan your visits:

  • Choose the artists that interest you and plan a route – remember to think about the studios that are not part of a ‘cluster’, they’re often in interesting locations
  • Check on the map for the latest information about the studios as we some may have last minute changes to opening times or access
  • Plan your route to allow plenty of time for conversations and take a chance on some of the studios in more out of the way locations.
  • Please remember that you are visiting artists in their workspace or an exhibit they have set up for the event. Some artists may have specific requirements for visitors, these may be to protect sensitive items or for your health and safety. Please respect these rules as the studios are normally the personal workspace of the artist.

Open Studios feature Full Member artists who have passed the quality criteria – ensuring that visitors will see the best of Argyll based artists.
