The annual Placitas Studio Tour kicks off this Mother’s Day weekend featuring 79 artists, 61 studios and seven neighborhoods.
The tour is now in its 27th year and welcomes thousands of visitors to Placitas. The tour is scheduled for 10 am to 5 pm, on Saturday and Sunday, May 11 and 12.
With the help of participating artists, the tour gives back to the community through partnerships such as the Placitas Elementary School Art Department and the Placitas Community Library. Local vendors Placitas Pizza and Chicky’s Coffee will sell food and drinks at La Estrella Event Center (664 Hwy 165 adjacent to the Placitas Post Office) during the event.
Admission to the tour is free. For more information on the tour and the studio locations, visit placitasstudiotour.org
