We invite you to apply to be a part of the highly successful and prestigious Camano Island Studio Tour for 2027. The Camano Arts Association prides itself on this annual tradition that brings thousands of visitors to Stanwood and Camano Island every spring. Affectionately known as the “Mother’s Day Tour,” we will run for 5 full stays starting the Friday before Mother’s Day (May 7-9) and concluding with the “Encore Weekend” of May 15-16 next year.
We are excited to expand our membership and include creatives from nearby locales to enhance our tour and bring new visitors to the area. If we have enough interest, we will find and rent a venue that will allow you to set up and display your art for the duration of the tour.
What we offer:
• An established tour that brings families and art enthusiasts together to celebrate art and our beautiful PNW scenery
• A paid Studio Tour Director dedicated to promoting and organizing the event with the support of a volunteer Studio Tour Committee
• A paid Marketing Manager who handles website updates and social media campaigns
• A well-funded marketing strategy with print, digital and radio advertising and a studio tour guide/map that is mailed to over 11,000 subscribers in advance of the event
• A vibrant arts community interested in sharing their love of the visual arts with each other and the public
• Membership in the CAA allows a year-round online gallery presence and the ability to promote your art and yourself though a monthly e-newsletter
