The Open Artist's Studio Trail is a new concept for Newcastle.  It is a free self-drive tour of artist's studios in the Newcastle and Hunter areas.  There are six studios participating with 15 artists exhibiting altogether.  Painting, drawing, printmaking, silver jewellery and sculpting will be displayed in the studios and art lovers can have the opportunity to meet with the artists in an informal atmosphere. So take a drive on the last Sunday of the month from April to November and enjoy the art and countryside.
