Our Mission is to cultivate an artist community that enriches our towns and hamlets.
Our Story
artEast Open Studio Tours was created in 2006 by a small group of local artists brought together by Arts Mid-Hudson (formerly Dutchess County Arts Council), with the goal of bringing an awareness to the art being made “east of the Taconic.” Meeting regularly at TROUTBECK in Amenia, the group sought to create a new art event and the artEast Open Studio Tour was born. With wide support and appreciation, the event has continued ever since.
