Artmap Argyll Open Studios 2022

45 Artmap Argyll artists open their studios to the public for the fifteenth year running to showcase their skills in the environment that inspires their work.

Our Red Dot Trail is one of Argyll’s premier visual arts events that features member studios and venues from Taynuilt in the north to Campbeltown in the south.

The event is an opportunity to visit artists in their studios, to see how they work, without the pressure to buy – although if you do fall in love with a piece, you have the joy of meeting the artist and seeing how the work is made. In many studios there are opportunities to try out the technique or craft the artist employs and to browse their sketchbooks to see how they develop their ideas. This is a fascinating weekend to get an inside view into the world of art and craft.

All information is available on the Artmap Argyll website, together with a downloadable directory. Printed directories are available from most tourist information displays and at hotels and guest houses throughout the West of Scotland.
