This year’s tour features a new collective, the Adret Artist Collective at Studio No. 6. The collective features five local artists who share studio space and inspiration to create mixed media, collage and acrylic art.
Among the artists scheduled to be part of the tour this weekend: painter David Van Zandt, Peace By Piece Pottery by Jennifer Patel, Jenny Armstrong of DK Designs with pyrography and leather arts, and many more.
The tour’s redesigned website (https://www.washougalstudioartists.org) offers visitors the chance to explore each artist, with in-depth profiles. The site also maps out the studio locations for the tour as well as nearby restaurants.
The tour is free.
Organizers hope that visitors find the tour to be an opportunity to bring mothers, friends, and family to enjoy a memorable experience.
