North East Open Studios is a celebration of creativity across the north-east of Scotland; over nine days in September, artists and makers are set to open their studios and exhibition spaces to the public, offering the chance to discover original work, meet the creatives behind it and experience the creative process first-hand.

From painting and ceramics to jewellery, textiles, photography, sculpture – even pen-making – and a great deal more, there’s something to inspire everyone, and with hundreds of artists taking part across the region.

The NEOS website and downloadable programme make planning visits easy, and print copies of the programme are also available at distribution points across the region. All venues are free to visit.
