Open Studios of the Scenic Rim
are about artists opening their studios so you can experience the artists at work.
Studios operate twice a year in May and September across 5 trail areas of the Scenic Rim from the rainforest environs of Tamborine Mountain, Canungra, and Beechmont to Mt Barney and Boonah in the west. Appointments can also be made outside these times direct with the artists to view their work. Most of the work on display is for sale with many artists available for commissions and/or workshops.
Where & When to Visit
Studios are open from 9am-5pm during the weekend indicated for each trail area.

HOW TO APPLY for 2011 – 2012 Open Studios round
Applications will open via this website in February 2011. To register your interest, email thecentre@scenicrim.qld.gov.au
Applications are open to artists and collectives of artists within the Scenic Rim region for the September 2011 and May 2012 round. Applications will be accepted from individual artists and artist collectives.Click here for more info on Collectives.
Artists Collective
An Artists Collective is an existing group of artists who work or exhibit together or a group that has come together specifically for the Open Studios program. An artists collective is more than a single artist. Where 2 artists share a studio space, the collective should be known by their respective surnames. Eg Smith & Brown Studio.
The artists collective has one person who represents the collective, one contact phone number and email address for correspondence, and one contact responsible for payment of the registration fee. The collective also will be based in one location where the artists will be showing their work.
One promotional fee [see below] will be charged to the artists collective to participate in the program. It is the responsibility of the collective to pay the fee in its entirety as one payment to Scenic Rim Regional Council. A split bill is not possible. Artists within collectives wishing to book a full page should indicate this within the online Application Form.
Applications will be assessed by a jury and short-listed studios will be visited to ensure the quality and safety of the studio experience. Selected artists and collectives will be notified May/June 2011. Production of the studios guide and marketing materials will be finalized in July in preparation for the September 2011 Open Studios.
Promotional Fee
The promotional fee is $200 per page within the Open Studios guide. The fee will be invoiced to successful Artists and Collectives once confirmation is issued. * The Fee must be paid to Scenic Rim Regional Council and paid in its entirety as one payment. A split bill is not possible.
