Open Studios 2024

The Yale School of Art is excited to announce that its annual open studios event is taking place in person in 2024, with work by participating artists also made available online. Studios will be open to the public and are located across Yale’s campus in downtown New Haven.

The studios of participating MFA students will be open to the public from 12–6pm on Saturday, April 13 and Sunday, April 14 in the departments of Graphic Design, Painting and Printmaking, Photography, and Sculpture. Pre-registration is encouraged, but day-of registration will also be available at the door. Members of the public are invited to check in at both 1156 Chapel Street and 36 Edgewood Avenue in New Haven. Register to attend here.

Events—artist talks, performances, and workshops—are also being hosted across the School of Art as part of Open Studios. The full schedule of community-led programming will be made available through the School of Art’s public events calendar and on the 2024 Open Studios website.

Online representation of work by participating MFA students will also be made available as part of a continued effort to expand the means through which students’ work and practice is accessible to the public as part of the annual open studios event. The 2024 Open Studios website will launch ahead of the start of Open Studios weekend on April 3, 2024.
