![2nd Annual Open Studio Tours: Women Artists of Kauai (Wailua to Wainiha)](https://donialilly.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Donia_Lilly_Red_Yellow_I-300x271.jpg)
Donia is the Kauai Open Studio Tours (and Preview Exhibit) event coordinator/planner as well as a Studio Tour participant for the Oct 19 & 20 weekend event.
The 2nd Annual Open Studio Tours will be held two weekends this year: October 12 & 13 for the South/West side of Kauai (Lihue to Waimea) and October 19 & 20 for the North/East side of the island (Wailua to Wainiha). The Studios will be open from 11am – 5pm each day. Maps will be available in the Midweek Kauai both weeks prior to the events and also printable online at WomenArtistsofKauai.org
A portion of the sales from this event will go to the Zonta Club of Hanalei’s Scholarship Fund!
You can also meet the participating artists of the 2nd Annual Open Studio Tours for their “Preview Exhibit” to be held at the Kauai Museum for the month of October. Each artist on the Open Studio Tour will have one piece of their work at the Kauai Museum from October 1 – October 31. This will help visitors wishing to see an example of the artwork to be experienced on the Studio Tours in mid-October choose which Studios to visit (or, perhaps inspire you to visit *all* of the Studios)!
Join the Women Artists of Kauai for their opening reception from 5-7pm on Wednesday October 2nd at the Kauai Museum.
A big Mahalo to our sponsors for the event! Midweek Kauai and The Garden Island, 7 Artists Gallery in Wainiha, Na Pali Properties, Savage Pearls, Bubba’s Burgers Hanalei, and the Zonta Club of Hanalei.
