The Greater Ithaca Art Trail celebrates its 26th year, featuring over 55 visual artists in Tompkins County, New York. Visit artists anytime by appointment, on select monthly 2nd Saturdays, and on two October Open Studio Weekends.
Access each artists’ full portfolio page through the Artist Page (click on the artists’ names – then once there you can navigate “next artist” or “previous artist”) which provides a gateway to explore each artists’ works online, often available for purchase through their online stores. Whether seeking a unique addition to your collection or a special gift, the Greater Ithaca Art Trail invites everyone to discover, appreciate, and support the arts.
You’ll find painters, photographers, sculptors, printmakers, fiber artists, potters, makers of fine furniture, illustrators, mixed media artists, jewelers, digital artists, and more, showcasing an AMAZING array of creative talent.
The Greater Ithaca Art Trail is one of the many programs of the Community Arts Partnership of Tompkins County. Visit our website to learn more about our programs, grants, events and more at ArtsPartner.org
Annual Events!
(Call artists anytime to make an appointment or to buy work!)
The artists will be thrilled to share their passion for their art making and show off what they’ve been working on.
2025 October Open Studio (probably Oct. 11, 12 and 19, 20) where 30 artists on the Art Trail will open their studios to the public from 11am to 5pm each day. Visitors gather their art loving family and friends and enjoy a drive through our beautiful county (peak fall foliage!!!) with artist studios as destinations. There’s no fee, and no appointments needed. Just a wonderful adventure with great art and great conversations!
A 2023 visitor on the Trail said, “I was blown away by the quality of the art that I saw and the really cool art studios. And I didn’t expect all the wonderful conversations I had with the artists. The Art Trail is such a unique and special event. And when you combine visiting such great artists with the beauty of the area, this is definitely going to be an annual event for me and I’ll be sure to bring heaps of friends each year!”
