Strait from the Artists Studio Tour is organized by local Olympic Peninsula art businesses, arts advocates and educators “dedicated to encouraging education, positive professionalism, and creating inclusive and innovative opportunities,” organizers said.

“We have been working together for years planning this inclusive art event for folks to engage directly with the artists and the spaces that they create in,” Emiko Brock said. “Built much like the welcoming, adventurous First Friday Art Walk in Sequim, we are delighted to launch Strait from the Artists Studio Tour on the Second Weekend in November.” For more information or to participate, email to renne@uniqueasyou.com.
