Philadelphia Open Studio Tours

allows visitors to “Follow Art to the Source” by organizing & promoting artists to open their spaces, to show and sell their work in a unique setting – their own.

A program of The Center for Emerging Visual Artists. First two weekends of October in Philadelphia.

The Philadelphia Open Studio Tours, or POST, is the largest tour of artist studios and creative workspaces in the region, and the only event of its kind in Philadelphia.

My POST Story
I’ve seen the Philadelphia Open Studio tours from many angles since first getting involved with CFEVA in 2005: Attendee, Employee, Volunteer, Community Advocate, Participating Artist, and Community Partner. While all of these experiences have been vastly different; they have all been equally rewarding. And while I might not always know which direction it might end up taking, I look forward to a new POST adventure every year, and I’m sure this year will be no exception.
