New Artists. New Connections.
Part of what makes the MKE Studio Tour special is the opportunity to discover something—or someone—new. These artists bring even more variety to this year’s Tour, while joining a community of returning artists who continue to share their skills, knowledge, and creative practices with visitors year after year.
The MKE Studio Tour gives you the chance to go beyond simply viewing art. Step into working studios, talk directly with artists, learn about their processes, experience demonstrations and activities, and purchase original artwork directly from the people who made it.
