Congratulations everyone - Margaret River Region Open Studios won Gold at the WA Tourism Awards last night in the Festivals & Events category 🏆🎉❤️

This is a huge win for everyone involved in the event, including our organisers, many of whom are volunteers, the art lovers who make the journey to visit each year, and our event partners. But the real stars of the show are our artists - the sculptors, painters, photographers, printmakers, jewellery, mosaicists, tattooists, weavers, potters, glass blowers, woodworkers and upcyclers. 

Thanks to the judges, Perth Airport and WA Tourism Council for organising the awards and congratulations to everyone involved ❤️
Save the Date ~ 13-28 September 2025

Pop it in your diary and tell your art-loving friends, Margaret River Region Open Studios will run 13 to 28 September 2025.

School holidays will start a little later than usual (26 September 2025) so the final weekend of our event coincides with the first weekend of school holidays once again.

We'd love to see you there ❤️🎨

Once again, a big thank you to Laurie, Simon and the team at Busselton Toyota for lending us a Toyota Kluger Grande for the duration of Open Studios.

We loved cruising around the studios in such a modern, comfortable car and made great use of its sunroof, heated leather seats and safety features.

Busselton Toyota supports many local organisations and events, and we appreciate their dedication to the south west community 👏💛
