Promoting the December event

We need your help!

Open Studios is organised by a small group of fellow artists. We are not paid professional event organisers. Please get involved and put a small amount of time and effort into helping make it a success for all of us.

We’ve put lots of useful stuff in one place for you. Click the button that says ‘Useful stuff for artists’ for:

• Where to get your maps and posters
• Important stuff about social media
• How to do collab posts so your post appears on our Instagram
• The 6 day Instagram challenge
• Some web friendly images for you to share
