ARTISANS ROADTRIP
August 17 – October 27, 2018
SWEENEY GALLERY
This year is the 15th Annual Artisans Road Trip. Artisans Road Trip invites you to travel Iowa’s scenic byways and back roads looking for one-of-a-kind treasures. Artisans will offer a rare glimpse into creative processes as they demonstrate their craft in personal and unique work spaces. Our mission is to promote a venue for established artisans to demonstrate their skills, exhibit and sell their original fine art via a self-guided studio tour through scenic Northwest Iowa, thereby encouraging education, diversity, tourism, economic growth, and art appreciation.
The official Artisans Road Trip weekend will be held from 9am – 5pm on Saturday, October 13th and from Noon – 5pm on Sunday, October 14th. Professional artists welcome guests into their studios/local galleries to discover and purchase quality original works. Artists participating in the Roadtrip weekend will also have an artwork on display at the Octagon Center for the Arts.
