We are thrilled to come together as a group to open our studios and sites to neighbors and friends. The Jamaica Plain community of artists is diverse and plentiful, representing a wide variety of mediums and disciplines.
This event is for those who are curious about what creative resources exist within Jamaica Plain, those who like to view artwork close to the source of its creation, and for those who like the opportunity to purchase original artwork from the person who actually created it. Here is the chance to visit us where it all begins! Each artist will be on hand to answer questions about the artwork and how it is created.
We are located in several concentrated areas throughout the Open Studios route. Some of the individual artists and galleries have spaces located in collective buildings, others have spaces located in their homes. You’ll know an Open Studios site by the banner located outside the entrance. Come on in!

You asked us, the volunteer board of JPOS, how to get more for your art during Open Studios. More people, more attention, more sales and just plain more!
And we listened and put together a great seminar/workshop for you to get MORE.
Yup, I am serious! Get up to And, it is easy and can even help you sell more of your work!
Did I get your attention? Uh, a few caveats: This is only for artists showing in their own spaces. There are a few rules too. Be sure to check out our updated Artist FAQ at jpopenstudios.com.
You asked us about arts marketing and we heard you! Check out this workshop.
Geared to the Open Studio novice, but also helpful for people who could use a boost, this workshop gives an overview of how to present yourself professionally at Open Studios and other events and make your participation a success.
