Art lovers from around the Bay Area are invited to tour artists' studios in the Point Reyes area during the annual Point Reyes Open Studios (PROS) event every Memorial Day weekend and Thanksgiving Weekend.

The Point Reyes Open Studios tour leads visitors along the back roads of this scenic rural area known for hiking trails, beaches, restaurants, and inns less than an hour drive from San Francisco.

Many of West Marin's finest sculptors, photographers, potters, painters, printmakers, and woodworkers open their studios for visitors to see where the art is created.

The free, self-guided Point Reyes Open Studios tour allows visitors the opportunity to explore the many charming villages of West Marin, from the forested lanes of Inverness Ridge to the grassy hills around Tomales Bay. Hand-built studios, gardens, and sweeping views grace many of the venues.

Visitors can pick up a free brochure/map at Point Reyes Books, The Station House Café, Palace Market, Ink Paper Plate, and many other local shops and inns. Maps and artist profiles can be found online at PointReyesArt.com.

Thanksgiving Weekend:  Friday - Sunday, 11 am - 5 pm
