APPLICATIONS TO BE FEATURED ON THE 2024 CCART will open in January 2024

 

An ‘Open Studio’ is when artisans “on the Arts Trail” commit to inviting the public into their studios to experience their art or craft process by way of a demonstration, workshop or discussion about their art or craft.  Visitors LOVE the real studio experience and, when we assess the applications, preference is given to authentic and interesting studios. Your studio doesn’t have to be pretty or pristine. 

 

IT IS CRUCIAL THAT THE ARTISAN OFFERS AN EXPERIENCE – SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND MEMORABLE – SO OUR VISITORS FEEL THAT THEY HAVE SEEN SOMETHING NOT NORMALLY MADE PUBLIC.  IT NEEDS TO BE MORE THAN AN ART EXHIBITION.

 

WHO CAN APPLY?

Artisans residing on the Southern Downs north of Dalveen.  Unfortunately we cannot extend the trail beyond the boundary of the Southern Downs Regional Council. NOTE YOU MAY BE ASKED TO PROVIDE PROOF OF RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS.

HOW TO APPLY?  Applications open January 2024​
