Wood River Valley Studio Tour 2016

The Wood River Valley Studio Tour invites artists to participate in a self-guided studio tour event on Saturday and Sunday, August 20-21, 2016, from 10 AM to 5 PM. Participating artists commit to opening their studios to welcome art patrons, admirers, and collectors who will visit to meet artists, observe the creative process, and purchase art.

Qualifying applicants must maintain a working art studio located within the Wood River Valley of Idaho and have completed a body of work representing a cohesive, visual art form with professional execution. Accepted visual art forms include ceramics, drawing, painting, sculpture, textiles, printmaking, photography, and fine woodwork. The entry fee is $200 when the completed application is submitted between April 1-30. Fees are nonrefundable. Artists with questions about the suitability of their art form are encouraged to contact [email protected].

Participating artists agree to donate a piece of artwork for the Mosaic Project. Each artist will be provided an 8x8" art panel upon which an original work shall be created. Panels will be incorporated into a mosaic installation that will be publicly displayed in Ketchum and available via online auction July 1-11, 2016. All sales proceeds from the donated panels will benefit WRVST. Additionally, each artist is invited to provide one work of art for inclusion in a group exhibition and reception with the artists on Friday, August 19th, at the nexStage Theatre in Ketchum. WRVST receives no commission or percentage of studio sales.
