Resources
To help you publicise your open studio we have produced posters and flyers for the event that you can download and print out yourself. Both carry the same images as the cover of the guide. There are blank spaces on both of these for you to write or print your own open studio information.

Below is a possible news release to download drafted by our Media Officer Dorothy Muir.
