Another record breaking Studio Tour is around the corner! (Especially if you live in Halifax, Bedford or the south shore!) We have 42 locations, some featuring five to nine artists in one spot. Over 70 artists and artisans are showing and selling their work this year. At location # 1, our official information hub (The SMB Community Enterprise Centre) at 5229 St. Margaret’s Bay Road in Upper Tantallon, you can view a map, take a map or scan for a map for the self-guided tour. You can see art at the CEC too! From the Prospect Road to East River, there is so much to take in, you may need two days (or even three!) You could plan ahead, start your carpool, and get a map online here now https://halifaxartmap.com/art-map/pcafa before hitting Highways 3, 333 and 329 on July 15th to visit our artists and artisans. You could win a $500.00 gift certificate to spend on art! Our eateries and cafés are numerous, all along the route. As you probably know, many of our studios and galleries are open year round, so hang on to your map for future daytrips and fun exploration of our artistic community.
