We're thrilled that you would like to showcase your work in our third annual Morgan Hill Open Studio event this October 21 - 22, 2023 (10AM - 4PM)!
 
The deadline for regular registration is June 30, 2023 (11:30PM).  Additional registrations may be accepted after this date at an increased price (see below).

The Morgan Hill Open Studios event offers local artists an opportunity to share their work and processes with the public, connect with other artists and sell their work.

We welcome artists from Morgan Hill, San Martin, Gilroy and South San Jose to participate in our open studio event. You will have the option to showcase from your own space (home, studio, business, etc.) or in one of our communal spaces in Morgan Hill. If you do not have a studio space, MHOS will contact you prior to the event with a location. Those located outside of these areas are still encouraged to apply, but will need to either showcase with another local artist or at one of the communal spaces.  

Please fill out this registration form and make your payment. You'll receive a confirmation email after you're finished. If you do not complete the payment portion, you will not be able to participate in the event. Please email mhopenstudios@gmail.com if you have any questions.
 
Visit the Artist Resource Page on our website where you can stay up to date on all important dates and information about the event. Also, follow us on Instagram and Facebook where we will be posting more event information as we get closer to the premiere.

What is the price range for your work? *
Images:
Please upload 3-5 images you would like to be used in your public listing on our website, social media, and printed material. One image should include a photo of yourself: either a headshot or of you doing your artwork. Although we only require 3 images, we encourage you to include more than 3 as these will be used for promotional purposes to attract the public to your space. 
 
Images must be high resolution jpegs, at least 1MB in size and at least 2000 pixels on the longest dimension. Please make any color adjustments and cropping to your images prior to uploading. No post-submission editing will be done.
 
Image files need to be labeled with your first and last name and sequential numbers (i.e. JaneDoe_01, JaneDoe_02, etc.)

Do you have a space to showcase your work?
If you have/know of a space to showcase your work and do not need to be hosted, click yes. Please note that showcasing your work in your own space requires a current liability insurance policy. Those without this will need to showcase their work in a communal location. For those without a space, MH Open Studios will find a space to host you and contact you with more details. *
Is your Open Studio address the same as the mailing address entered above? *
Do you have a space large enough to accommodate more artists than yourself?
We are encouraging artists with a studio to share their space so that others can also show their work in a creative environment. If you do have space to accomodate additional artists, click Yes and select how many artists you can support. A committee member will contact you for more specific information.
If you don't have additional space, please click No. *
Please select how many artists your space can support. *
Please help make MHOS 2023 the best it can be!
