Margaret River Open Studios is in full swing, with 120 artists across the region inviting the public into their creative spaces during the 16 day event.

Participating artists include the very well known, such as Leon Pericles, and 30 first-timers.

Artists are reporting solid visitor numbers, with Western Australians keen to get out and about.

Great Time of Year for Open Studios

Artist Gerry Reilly, of Melting Pot Glass Studio (pictured), says the event has been absolutely glorious, with the change of date working well for artists.

“It’s spring, so all the gardens are looking sensational,” he says. “Margaret River Open Studios is normally held earlier in the year, around Easter, but I think most of us are hoping we’ll continue holding the event at this time of year because everything just looks so stunning.”

10/10 would recommend!

Some of us at Tanah Marah have visited a number of studios and highly recommend the experience. It’s lovely to meet talented artists and see what they’ve been busy creating in our beautiful south west. 

Although Tanah Marah is fully booked over the next two weekends, we still have some vacancies for a mid-week getaway, so come on down to Margaret River and visit our local artists in their studios.
