Arts Open 2020

Our Meet the Makers festival will be our fifth Arts Open in 2020.

Visual artists from all over Mount Alexander Shire will throw open their studio doors in March 2020. Members of the public have a unique opportunity to meet the artists our region is renowned for. Witness the spaces in which art is created, gain insights into the creative process and purchase work directly from the artists.

Personal studios plus a series of group exhibitions showcasing over 90 professional painters, printmakers, jewellers, sculptors, multimedia artists and craftspeople across the townships of Castlemaine, Newstead, Maldon, Chewton and beyond will be open over both weekends.

This year, the historic Castlemaine Market Building will be the Arts Open festival information hub and will present an exhibition of outstanding work from a selection of artists.
