The ART ON THE EDGE Studio Tour of the Central Oregon Coast is a self-guided tour of the studio spaces of well known, coastal visual artists for the weekend of May 30-31 and June 1, 2025. Hours are 11am to 5pm each day. The studio sites range in location from Cascade Head to Newport, Oregon. These artists will show off their exclusive locations, demonstrate their creative processes and sell their work. We invite you to experience our rich local arts community which has the distinction of being located along the beautiful Oregon Coast (the “Edge” of the continent).
The Art on the Edge Studio Tour includes roughly 30 individual artists at 16 studio sites, a few of which are group studios. This year the tour includes a great variety of mediums: oil painting, acrylic painting, watercolor, mixed media, encaustic, metal sculpture and casting, driftwood furniture, handmade jewelry, fused glass, glass blowing, clay and ceramic art, photography, weaving, mosaic, assemblage, fiber arts and more.
Studio tour booklets will be available at the Lincoln City Cultural Center and the Newport Visual Arts Center beginning in the spring of 2025 and at all participating arts organizations and studio sites throughout the tour dates. The map will also be made available on the website at that time.
All studio tour artists will be featured in an exhibit at the Chessman Gallery inside the Lincoln City Cultural Center. This is a great opportunity to see a few pieces from each of the participating Studio Tour artists in one space. Details of the exhibit will be posted closer to the tour. The Chessman Gallery is at 540 NE Hwy 101, Lincoln City, Oregon 97367, inside the Lincoln City Cultural Center.
