Participate in Somerville Open Studios

Somerville Open Studios (SOS) is a 501c3 non-profit organization created and run by artists and art enthusiasts who volunteer time and energy to create a citywide open studios event. We welcome new ideas and participation from all people interested in promoting the visual arts in Somerville. It's a great way to get involved in the local arts community, meet other artists, and have fun!

Membership

Membership for 2010 has closed.

Gain Additional Exposure

For the past seven years, SOS has mounted a group exhibit that runs in conjunction with open studios. We will continue this tradition for 2010, with our Artists' Choice show at the Somerville Museum. All registered SOS artists are invited to submit a piece of their choosing for inclusion in the exhibit. The show typically receives generous traffic both before and during open studios weekend. Many visitors plan their itinerary based on work seen at this exhibit.

In addition to providing additional exposure, the opening reception on Friday April 16th gives SOS members a chance to have a little fun in the weeks leading up to SOS, touch base with fellow artists and see each other’s work.

Artwork drop off is coming right up on April 10th and 11th. Click here for full information.
