Presented by the Haywood County Arts Council (HCAC), the annual Haywood County Studio Tour will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 21, and from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 22.
A free, self-guided event showcasing the region’s talented artists, this unique event offers art lovers the chance to visit artists’ studios. Watch live demonstrations and purchase original works directly from the creators.
To help visitors explore the diverse art across our mountainous region, some artists have been grouped into “pods” at locations like Twigs and Leaves Gallery, Folkmoot, Burlwood Gallery, Cold Mountain Arts Collective and the new Church Street Studios.
In addition to studio visits, HCAC is hosting a silent auction featuring artwork by HCAC artist members, with proceeds benefiting the HCAC. Auction items can be viewed in the gallery window at 86 North Main St. in Waynesville or online at givebutter.com/c/UBQcTO.
