Explore Boundary County’s artistic side

By Reader Staff

If you’ve ever wondered where artists escape to when crafting their masterpieces, or what their creative processes are like, then clear your calendar on Saturday, Sept. 12 and Sunday, Sept. 13 for the Boundary County Artist Studio Tour. 

Running from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day, the free self-guided tour takes attendees to eight businesses and home studios across the county.

“​This isn’t a craft fair. It’s a chance to witness the heart of the artistic process, ask questions and collect original work directly from the source,” organizers stated. “Bring your curiosity, your questions and your appreciation for the art that’s created right here, surrounded by the beauty of North Idaho.”

This will be the third annual tour since Hannah Sucsy of Teascarlet Fine Art and Tamara Wagner of Wood Thief Art launched the event. The studios housing Sucsy’s acrylic paintings and Wagner’s 3-D wood art are among the eight stops, which also feature fiber arts, oil paintings, pastels, watercolors, drawings, photography and textiles.
