Napa Valley Open Studios

History

Established in 1987.

Napa Valley Open Studios is a free, self-​guided, art discovery tour. It takes place the last two weekends of September every year. Whether you’re an avid collector or just curious about art, this is an incredible opportunity to peer into the creative spaces of Napa Valley, meet the artists, watch demonstrations and buy local art right from the source! Napa Valley Open Studios is organized and presented as a collaborative effort by the participating artists of the Napa Valley Art Association who are committed to bringing you the best Open Studios event ever! The program exists because the artists believe in the importance and value of opening their studios to visitors and sharing a unique artistic experience. Volunteers have contributed hundreds of hours and our generous sponsors have contributed financial support to ensure Open Studios continues to be an important event in our community. We program contributes a portion of revenues to local High School and NVC art scholarships.
