Maui Open Studios, Opening Celebration/Preview Exhibition, Free!

Maui Open Studios: Opening Celebration/Exhibition, 50+ Artists, Saturday, February 8!
3 WEEKENDS of self guided tours start Feb.15 through March 2.

The tradition continues its 13th year of connecting art lovers and art collectors with artists around the island of Maui. MOS is a popular event for art enthusiasts, art collectors, and those seeking creative inspiration both local and tourist alike. This year we are excited about a new venue for our festive Opening Celebration / Preview Exhibition in Kihei.

This year’s event begins in February and continues into the first weekend of March. The event gives artists the opportunity to open up their studios and exhibition spaces to show and sell their work directly to the public as well as “talk story”, connect, and inspire visitors through one-on-one interactions and in some cases, live demonstrations. The entire event is free to the public.

The mission of MOS is to connect the art community directly with art-lovers on Maui. Since its inception, the event has generated over 8,000 individual studio visits annually by art collectors and art enthusiasts each year.

For the 2025 MOS event, there are over 50 participating artists working in various mediums including ceramics, photography, mixed media, wood, fiber, drawing, painting and more. The public is invited to join many of the artists at the free Opening Celebration/Preview Exhibition, where they can preview the artists' work, connect directly with the artists, and pick up copies of our printed guidebook.

Guidebooks are available, while supplies last, at various locations around the island, which will be listed on MauiOpenStudios.com.

Our website includes online artist directories, and our interactive Google map/directory. Visitors can use GPS to find artist locations.
