MotherShip Studios presents the second annual San Marcos Studio Tour. The tour will include artists’ studios within the San Marcos and Martindale city limits and will run April, Friday 4/05 – Sunday 4/07, the weekend preceding the big 2024 Eclipse. It will begin with a kick-off event at MotherShip Studios on April 5th at 7:00pm where guests can mingle with local artists and explore a group exhibition of all the participating artists which will run for the duration of the tour.
The San Marcos Studio Tour invites the public to explore artist studios and connect with partnering businesses helping to foster connection and engagement between the arts and local communities. The tour is an invitation into the creative chaos that is an artist’s studio. Attendees get a rare look into the at-home studios and warehouse workshops, with their paint-splattered floors, inspirational walls of reference photos, wood and steel-working tools, or clay-ridden ceramic wheels. These environments, though sometimes unpolished, are where the magic of creation happens and creativity flourishes. Allowing the public an insider view into the artist’s process fosters a unique exchange between fellow artists, community members and art collectors. Please join us for an inspiring, interactive, weekend full of San Marcos art.
Participation is open to all artists living or working in the San Marcos and Martindale city limits.
