Perthshire Open Studios 2025

Visiting an artist’s open studio is so much more than a shopping opportunity, it’s a chance to find connections with people, meaning in their work and to enjoy and appreciate the vibrant creative community here on our doorstep.

Late Summer or early Autumn?  However you view September, it’s a beautiful time to be exploring and Perthshire Open Studios is a brilliant reason to get out and about and enjoy the stunning scenery.
