open studio weekends
18-19 + 25-26 OCTOBER 2025
Welcome to Autumn Arts 2025
The planning for the October Trail is well underway and we are welcoming artists from all over Stroud, in all directions.
There will also be an Events section in the brochure featuring special exhibitions and events. If you would like to offer any relevant information for this section, particularly any organised workshops or talks, do get in touch.
There will be two open studio weekends, 18/19 and 25/26 October 2025. Opening times are 11am – 5pm each day.
The brochure for last year’s trail is available as a PDF below.
And if you are a business or venture looking to widen your horizons, we have very competitive advertising rates which we can send you on request.
We look forward to welcoming you!

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
