The 2010 Studio Discovery Tour takes place on Labor Day weekend (September 4-6) and the following weekend (September 11-12).
This free, self-guided tour along a 30-mile stretch of Highway 1, from Sea Ranch to Elk, is the perfect way to spend a leisurely day or an entire weekend. The participating artists you meet along the way are happy to demonstrate the making of their art and share their unique vision.
A free, full-color catalog will help you make the most of your tour. It contains a description of each artist, along with a detailed map and directions to each studio. While on the road, look for the bright yellow signs to help guide you along the way. Note that the catalog is a must when visiting artists in The Sea Ranch, since directional signs are not allowed along that section of Highway 1.
You can begin your adventure by stopping at the Sea Ranch Lodge (southern border of the Tour) or the Artist's Collective in Elk (northern border of the Tour) to preview the work of Studio Tour artists and to pick up extra catalogs with maps. Catalogs will also be available at the Gualala Arts Center, the Mendocino Art Center, and various local galleries and businesses along the way.
To receive your catalog by mail, so you can begin planning your own personal tour, e-mail the
