We're aiming to raise $30,000 in just 30 days to ensure that Open Studios can continue its vital work supporting artists and enriching our community. We do so much! From the October Open Studios Tour itself, to art education and outreach, to artist support, we are an integral part of Boulder County's art scene. You can read more ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS HERE.
To make this campaign even more fun, we're planning exciting giveaway drawings each week this month!
Take a look at these below. We'll be gifting some lucky supporters with gorgeous artwork from Open Studios artists as well as other enticing surprises. Just make a donation of any size to participate. We suggest $30 - one dollar for each year since the organization's founding in 1995! Or how about $19.95, $199.50 or $1,995.00 in recognition of our birth year?!!!
It is with the support of individuals, businesses and organizations that we create the varied programming we provide our community.
