The inaugural Open Studios Art Trail takes place Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 August 2025, from 10am to 4pm. Visitors will have the unique opportunity to explore local studios, meet 18 participating artists across 10 venues, and discover the stories behind their work. Make a stop at the Pit Stop Café in Spylaw Park, Colinton, which serves as our info hub with brochures, maps, and toilets. Collect stamps from studios and enter our prize draw for artist vouchers.
But the Art Trail is just the beginning. Throughout the year, POSt will host artist talks, hands-on workshops, and community events designed to foster learning, creativity, and connection.
POSt is entirely run by some of Scotland's finest artists, who happen to live in our catchment area. In its first year, the trail features both private studios and unique public venues, including the Victorian greenhouse at Malleny Garden, a National Trust for Scotland property—blending the beauty of art and nature in one memorable setting.
