Have you ever wondered about an artist’s creative process? This weekend and next weekend, May 9-10 and 16-17, you’ll get a chance to visit artists’ studios, see their works in progress, and learn about how they approach their projects through the West Austin Studio Tour.
During this free, self-guided tour, artists will host open houses at their creative spaces and allow the public to get a peek at where the magic happens. And since Lamar Union is just a few minutes from the boundaries of the tour, it would make for a convenient and fun thing to do!
One of the highlights of the West Austin Studio Tour is West Group Exhibition located at 3300 N. Interstate 35, which features the work of nearly 200 artists who are taking part in the tour. Essentially, it’s a way to preview art that you can then delve into deeper by visiting the artist’s studio. Breakfast will be served at the West Group Exhibition from 9:30-11 a.m. on Saturday, May 9, which is a great way to kick off a day of going from studio to studio. Visit the tour’s website for a studio guide and map.
