Devon Open Studios
On 12th September 2026 to 20th September 2026
Devon Open Studios is the annual flagship event of Devon Artist Network. For two weeks in September, members of the network – potters, artists, jewellery makers, wood workers, needle workers and creatives of every kind, open their doors and invite people in to discover their work and to chat to the artists themselves about their processes and inspiration. Work will also be on sale and it can be a perfect opportunity to purchase unique artwork direct from the maker.
Use their website to see which studios are open on specific dates, or check out all the different categories from leather to fabric, glass to paint, wood to metal. There is bound to be something that will delight you.
Reviews
- Sights and smells - Cannot beat the smell and sound of a steam locomotive, a very scenic ride firstly along the beach, then along the river Dart. A couple of hours in Dartmouth then all aboard for trip back.
- Agatha Christie country - The ride on the train is beautiful right along the coast & Dart valley. You can also take your well behaved dog. I would highly recommend this excursion, we go every time that we are in Devon, it is not to be missed.
- Fantastic visit - We chose to do the steam train and river cruise and it was fantastic. The staff were very helpful. After using the ferry to cross the river we went to find somewhere to have a snack before getting onto the cruise. The commentary was brilliant and we were pointed out different landmarks throughout the cruise. Thank you Dartmouth Steam Railway.
