JOIN IN THE FUN!

Save the date… Saturday, June 3 will be the Guemes Island Art Studio tour with 37 artists and 10 studios on the self-guided tour. Using our tour map, you can wander the island and find art treasurers.  Some fun & funky garden art, some sparkling jewelry, beautifully crafted wooden bowls, blown glass vessels, textiles, clay creations, inspired paintings for your home, and much more!  

 

If you or your friends are coming from off of the island, half of the artists are within walking distance of the ferry which makes shopping super easy. Just walk on the ferry to find the artists between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. 

 

More info, list of artists participating in the event, tour map, etc. available on May 1.

CALENDAR

May 1: Roll out of the map, poster, news articles and island signs.  The event is featured in the GICCA monthly newsletter, “MyGuemes.Org” website and found on community calendars in the region. Guemes Island Art will feature all of the event artists in the “Artist of the Month” article.
