CREATIVE CUTS - An Art Trail Adventure

Queensland's largest Open Studios Art Trail is returning for its 10th year, running from October 10 to 19, 2025, and promises to be an event like no other. 

Stretching across Noosa's beautiful coastline and hinterland, the trail invites visitors to step inside the working studios of 94 talented artists, offering an exclusive look into their creative processes. With a decade of growth, this art trail is a unique opportunity to discover one-of-a-kind artwork, meet the makers, and experience the Noosa region in a fresh and inspiring way.

The trail offers more than just a chance to view art; it allows you to engage with artists in their creative spaces. Visitors will be able to watch live demonstrations, see works in progress, and gain insights into the stories and inspirations behind each piece. 

It’s an opportunity to experience art in its most authentic form, without the barriers often found in traditional galleries. For those interested in taking home something special, the trail also offers the chance to purchase original, locally made art directly from the artists, with no gallery mark-ups, making it an affordable and personal way to bring home a piece of Noosa.

This year’s trail is about more than just art—it’s about exploring Noosa differently. Beyond the usual tourist attractions, the trail leads you to hidden studios tucked away in rainforests, along scenic coastlines, and in charming hinterland towns. 

Whether you’re an art lover, a collector, or simply curious, Noosa’s Open Studios will inspire you, while offering a deeper understanding of the local creative community.

To make the most of the event, be sure to pick up a copy of the Noosa Open Studios Art Trail Guide, available at locations like The Joy Collective in Maleny, Montville Art Gallery,

Glass House Mountains Visitor Centre, and Cotton Gun Café in Yandina. 

Using the Noosa Open Studios Art Trail Guide, you can plan your journey across four scenic trails, and it provides essential details about the artists and their studios. For easy access, you can also download the Noosa Open Studios App at noosaopenstudios.com. 

Start your adventure at Wallace House, where you can view a sample of each artist’s work and get tips from knowledgeable volunteers. With 15 workshops on offer, the Noosa Open Studios Art Trail is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the region’s creative spirit.
