Each October a premier group of Yamhill County artists open their studio doors to the visiting public. This thriving community of artists, many of regional and national acclaim, is sure to spark your interest in visual arts, the creative process, and the unique studio environment of the working artist.
The Art Harvest Studio Tour is a grassroots event made possible by the volunteer spirit of the artists involved and the generosity of our dedicated sponsors. As you tour scenic Yamhill County, look for the sponsors listed in this tour catalog.
Start the tour at any studio by purchasing a $5 tour button. The button allows access to all studios during both weekends. Visit as many studios as you like. Children are admitted free and additional catalogs are available at each studio.
Look for directional signs along the roadways during event weekends. Some artists share studio space, information noted in this tour catalog as well.

Note: An artist’s studio is a private and personal space. When visiting, please show the same courtesy and respect you would when visiting a friend’s home.
