Vashon Island Spring Studio Tour 2026

Celebrate spring’s colorful renewal during the Vashon Island Spring Studio Tour, Saturdays and Sundays, May 2-3 & 9-10, 2026, from 10 am to 5 pm each day. Vashon Island Visual Artists presents the tour featuring 36 studios and galleries, representing more than 120 artists and craftspeople. The organization’s website, VIVArtists.com, offers an interactive online map with details about each studio and gallery. You can also search by artist and medium. Tour locations are spread throughout the island community, from the town center to outlying farms and shores, providing an escape for urban visitors and giving locals the chance to discover tucked-away corners of the island. Start your tour at the VIVA Tour Info Center & Gallery, located in the heart of town on Vashon Hwy, across from Snap Dragon. The center is designed to enhance each visitor’s experience, from our knowledgeable tour docents to our large interactive map that lets you explore the tour’s locations. The center offers tour brochures, public restrooms, and a mobile phone charging station. The center’s gallery presents the work of four Island artists, including paintings, leather, jewelry, felted pieces, ceramics, and pet portraits. VIVA will hold a First Friday kick-off party for the tour at the Tour Center, May 1, from 5-8 pm, and include a gathering of artists from around the tour. The VIVA Studio Tour gives visitors the chance to purchase one-of-a-kind gifts in a wide range of price points. You’ll be able to enhance the meaning of the gift by meeting its creator and discovering the story behind the piece. Works range from beautifully functional to decidedly decorative pieces, including oil paintings, ceramics, pastels, blown glass, linocuts, monoprints, acrylics, leather, watercolors, photography, wearable fiber arts, jewelry, basketry, woodwork, stained glass, mosaics, garden art, sculpture, art cards, etched glass, artisan soap, and more.
