Why We Do Studio Visits: Making Art More Accessible
Studio Visit Justine Laeufer
At OPN.ART, we believe that art should be accessible to everyone, and that includes not just viewing finished pieces in galleries or museums, but also understanding the creative process behind them. This is why we organize Studio Visits—intimate, behind-the-scenes tours that give art enthusiasts a unique opportunity to engage with artists in their personal creative spaces.
The Essence of Studio Visits
Studio Visits are much more than a casual meet-and-greet. They are immersive experiences where attendees can:
Witness the Creative Process: See firsthand how artists transform ideas into tangible works of art. This includes observing their techniques, tools, and materials.
Engage with Artists: Have meaningful conversations with artists about their inspirations, challenges, and artistic journeys. This direct interaction often leads to a deeper appreciation of their work.
Exclusive Previews: Get a sneak peek at upcoming projects and works-in-progress that are not yet available to the public. This insider access can be incredibly inspiring and enriching.

Making Art More Accessible
Our ultimate goal is to make art more accessible. By organizing Studio Visits, we break down the barriers between artists and audiences. This accessibility fosters a deeper connection to art, encouraging more people to appreciate and engage with it.
We are committed to creating opportunities for everyone to experience art in a meaningful way. By providing a structured and engaging platform for Studio Visits, we bridge the gap between artists and the public, making the world of art a little less distant and a lot more personal.

To ensure that our Studio Visits are valuable and well-organized experiences, we charge a fee for attendance. Here’s why:
Commitment: When events are free, we often encounter the issue of no-shows. People reserve a spot but don’t attend, which is unfair to others who are genuinely interested. Charging a fee ensures that those who reserve a spot are committed to attending, creating a more reliable and respectful environment for both artists and attendees.
Quality Experience: The fee allows us to manage the number of attendees effectively, ensuring that each visit is intimate and interactive. It also helps us cover the costs of organizing these events, from coordination to refreshments, making sure every detail contributes to a high-quality experience.
