open studio weekends

17-18 + 24-25 OCTOBER 2026

Welcome to Autumn Arts 2026

The Autumn Arts Trail 2026 offers you a wonderful opportunity to enjoy Stroud and the valleys in the autumnal glory of this golden season. 
 
Around fifty artists invite everyone to view their work and experience their working environments and studios as well as exhibition spaces and creative events.
 
Two consecutive weekends allow ample time for visitors to enjoy this collection of art and locations, guided by a beautiful, renowned (free) brochure reflecting the quality of the artistic work on show throughout the Trail.
 
A unique event where you can meet the artists and mingle with other visitors to celebrate this visual feast together.

The Autumn Arts Trail is a window into each artist’s practice; it’s enticing, inspiring and impressive. The work reflects the place. Stroud and its environs are blessed with a rich mix of talent and skill, a magnet for those who make and those who appreciate.

This is our annual opportunity to discover makers we haven’t met and to chance upon art we might not otherwise see. We invite you along to reconnect with old friends and make some new ones. The trail is laid out geographically so it’s easy to negotiate your way around, with lots of cafés on the way to keep you fed and watered.

If you have any questions or you’d like to get in touch, just email info@autumnarts.org
