Welcome to Dorset Art Weeks 2012

This is DAW’s 11th biennial event, the largest Open Studios Event in the country, and this year will be one of the most lively and interesting to date. This website showcases all the artists taking part. Browse by category or filter your results by area. You can even switch to a map mode, where you can explore a map of Dorset and see what’s happening near you.

At almost all venues the artists, designers or makers will be on-hand to help you engage with the work, keen to talk to you about the extraordinary range of materials, skills and traditions that inform their work. Do join in - and - Try something new.
