The Perth Autumn Studio Tour is a well-established venue through which craftspeople and artists sell their work over a 3 day period on the Thanksgiving weekend each year. Approximately 3000 visitors will travel between the studios, which are in close proximity to each other, to meet the makers, view their work space and buy the work. Over the years our tour has established a reputation as a very well organized display of varied, high quality work.

Each year we encourage other crafts people to participate as guests, displaying their work in the studios of the tour members. We jury new applicants with attention to quality of work, suitability to available space and variety as compared to the other work on the tour.

The application deadline is April 30. Guest spaces are limited and the appropriate location will be decided during the jury process and confirmed with each guest at a later date. 

The cost of participation is $350. Please include a cheque for this amount with your application postdated to June 1, of the current year and payable to Perth Autumn Studio Tour.  NSF cheques risk elimination of applicant from the tour.  Your cheque will only be cashed upon your acceptance to the tour and confirmation of your participation.

Please include with your application:

• completed application form
• a short artist statement
• a resume
• a portfolio of your work in photo format (photos 4x6 or larger), or digital format (jpg) on a CD
