Step inside the creative heart of the Yarra Valley and Upper Yarra at this year’s Open Studios — a unique opportunity to visit the private workspaces of the region’s incredible artists.

Wander through scenic landscapes as you explore studios tucked away in townships, valleys and hillsides. Meet the artists in their natural habitat — see where they paint, print, throw, sculpt, stitch, photograph and more. Smell the paint, touch the tools, watch demonstrations, and discover the inspiration behind each piece. This is your chance to ask questions, see techniques in action, and experience the magic behind the artwork.

Whether you are reconnecting with a favourite artist or discovering someone entirely new, Open Studios invites you to engage with a vibrant and diverse creative community. With work ranging from painting, ceramics and photography, to printmaking, fibre art, mixed media and more, there’s something to inspire every kind of art lover.

Mark your calendar, bring your curiosity, and get ready to explore the studios of the Yarra Valley.
