Ojai’s Renowned Art Studio Tour Returns This October

OJAI, CA — A beloved tradition on the Southern California cultural calendar, the Ojai Studio Artists (OSA) Tour returns October 11–13, 2025, inviting art lovers, collectors, and the creatively curious to explore the private workspaces of more than 60 of the valley’s most accomplished artists.

This self-guided, three-day event offers an extraordinary opportunity to experience a wide range of original artwork—including painting, sculpture, fiber art, mosaic, collage, jewelry, glass, prints, and mixed media—in the unique and often surprising environments where the art is created. From tucked-away backyard studios to rustic workshops nestled in the hills, each stop on the tour offers a personal connection to Ojai’s thriving artistic community.

The weekend kicks off with a free public reception on Friday, October 10, from 5–7 PM at the Ojai Valley Museum. Guests can meet the artists, view a special preview exhibit featuring work by all participating tour artists, and pick up tour brochures and maps.

Tickets for the full weekend are $20 and provide access to all open studios. Proceeds support this community nonprofit and scholarships for art students at Nordhoff High School, continuing OSA’s mission of fostering the next generation of artists.

“This is a rare opportunity to experience the true creative spirit of Ojai,” says OSA President Brian Berman. “It’s not just the incredible variety of work on display—it’s the chance to see it where it’s made, to talk with the artists, and to be inspired by the beauty and soul of this community.”
