Why Should Artists Advertise in the SF Open Studios Guide?

Advertising in ArtSpan's SF Open Studios Guide is the most effective way to reach the thousands of your potential collectors who are participating in SF Open Studios (SFOS)! It serves to build interest in your art, direct people to your event(s), and helps clients follow up with you year round. 

ArtSpan prints and distributes thousands of SFOS Guides, placing them in the hands of our many patrons composed of art collectors, dealers, curators, interior designers, and art professionals spread across the Greater Bay Area. ArtSpan also distributes the Guide to key locations that support local art; these include coffee shops, hotels, museums and bookstores, as well as retail and tourist spots throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. 

ArtSpan’s SFOS Guide is a treasured resource for art enthusiasts who want to contact artists directly beyond the SF Open Studios season. The Guide covers the history of SF Open Studios and details necessary information to connect directly with artists now and in the future. Historically, SF Open Studios attendees keep the Guide as a memento and a reference for artists who have caught their eye during our SF Open Studios program.
