Nestled in the scenic and winding roads of Dartmouth and Westport, Massachusetts, are the studios of some of the region's finest artists. Art Drive artists will open their creative spaces to the community. This annual tour showcases professional works created by some of the area's premier painters, ceramic artists, photographers, jewelers, fiber artists, and woodworkers. Our artists members offer new work that results from a year's worth of creative explorations.

It is a weekend for conversation, questions, and an opportunity to see the tools and inspirations that drive an artist's process. Every studio is unique. Several artists will be offering demonstrations throughout the weekend.

Art lovers and collectors alike will enjoy a great day trip or weekend escape while touring the historic and picturesque South Coast towns of Dartmouth and Westport, MA. With only fifteen miles between the Art Drive studios, you will have plenty of time for picnic lunches, ice cream, or meals in one of the area's restaurants.

We extend our thanks and appreciation to all our sponsors and supporters which include Dartmouth Pool and Spa, DSK|Dewing Schmid Kearns Architects + Planners, Frank Clegg Leatherworks, Groundwork Farm, HUB International, Kirby Brook Farm, Servedwell Hospitality, and Portugalia Marketplace.You can view the full list online and in our brochures.
