About

Mundaring Hills Open Studios (MHOS) would like to give you this opportunity to be involved in this year’s Art in the Hills Event. Every year MHOS event has grown. We now have over 80 artists and more than 4000 people who come to the hills to visit their studios.

​

Visiting the studios that participate in the Mundaring Hills event is a unique experience and an unusual opportunity to sample the lives of our local artists. It gives people access to the artist’s work which comes in an incredible range of medium – from glass and ceramics to oil paint, water colours, textiles, wood, recycled metals and much more.

​

The artists too range across the spectrum – from professionals with international acclaim to those who work part time or as a hobby – and all of them want to share their artistic environment.

​

The aim of this event is to encourage and support these artists in the Mundaring Hills region, and to foster public interest. Last year 81 artists were involved across 30 studios and 4 venues. Examples of last year’s artists can be found here on our web page mundaringhillsopenstudios.com/artists and also on our facebook and instagram pages.​

 

​To promote this amazing event a full colour 56 page brochure is produced every year, together with posters and flyers that get distributed across Perth Metro and Hills regions and further afield. The book is designed in a square format. We estimate to print 17,000 copies this year. These will be distributed from 1 August 2024.

If you would like to view last year's brochure please click here.

​

This could be a perfect opportunity to advertise your business, be it local to the hills or further afield.
