Naples Open Studio Trail

Naples Open Studio Trail
Naples, New York
October 3–4, 2026

The Naples Open Studio Trail is a free, two-day event with art studios open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.  the first weekend of every October. Centered in Naples, the Trail extends northeast and northwest of Canandaigua Lake.

We are a group of dynamic, innovative artists located in the Finger Lakes in Western New York. We invite the public to our homes and studios to share our crafts, demonstrate how we work, and create a better understanding of the arts. We are now in our 25th year of operation.

Autumn is a perfect time to visit the hillsides of the Finger Lakes, where the beauty of the landscape and ever-changing colors abound. Located deep in the heart of New York Wine Country, in October our trees are at peak color, and we have a multitude of bed and breakfasts, inns, wineries, restaurants, antique shops, and more to make a perfect day, weekend, or weeklong getaway.

During the Open Studio Trail, visitors can stop by all the studios or only those that strike a particular art interest, and many of our artists conduct captivating demonstrations. We work in oils, glass, ceramics, metal, wood, and leather, and create paintings, sculpture, wearables, furniture, jewelry, housewares, etc. We typically sell our wares in galleries and juried craft fairs; during the Trail, purchases and commissions can be made directly with us.
