7In 2024 our Art Trail featured 70 venues and more than 100 artists work on show and we are looking forward to expanding this in 2025.
We will also be including additional 'Pop Up Studio Venues' where a small number of artists will work in a combined space during the 2025 event.
To make things easy for our visitors we have created six individual trails, three Coastal these are Caloundra, Central and Northern and three hinterland journeys from the Foothills, Maleny and Montville.
Hinterland Studios will be open from 10am - 4pm on Saturday, May 17 and 18 and
Coastal Studios will be open from 10am - 4pm on Saturday, May 24 and 25
Some artists have also chosen to open on the weekdays in between - however it is best to check out the Art Trail Guide to confirm these dates / days.
All of the artists from 2024 are featured below, you can check out the link to their individual profiles. The 2025 artists will be updated in February 2025.
