Greenpoint Open Studios is happening again this year on Saturday, June 8th and Sunday, June 9th!

GOS is an un-curated event where local artists and creatives open up their studio doors to share their work with the public. Last year more than 400 artists participated and tens of thousands of art lovers swarmed our beautiful neighborhood to weave in and out of art studios and spaces. And again this year, throughout the inspiring weekend there will also be parties, artist-led workshops, talks and guided tours.

Who should register? Artists of all mediums, designers, crafters, fabricators, performers, and anyone who has work or work-in-progress to show in Greenpoint.

Today (May 1st) is the last day to get the $15 Early Bird Registration price! After today, the cost to sign up will go up to $40.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Sign up to register your work and location of your space (your studio, your home, or wherever you are able to show your art and host visitors).
  2. Your address will be on the publicly available GOS online map and a printed guide that is distributed all over North Brooklyn
  3. Registered artists open their doors on June 8th and 9th to visitors, from 12pm-6pm each day

*Note: You can also sign up if you are a Greenpoint artist without a space to show your work. A few local venues have generously offered up their space to show artists’ work during GOS. You can let them know you’re interested by signing up on the forms here.
