The Helena Public Art Committee (HPAC) hosted its second annual Open Studios Tour of working artist studios in the Helena area on September 11, 2010. 

Tour participants visited more than 20 artists as they worked in their studios to create jewelry, beads, fiber arts, painting, pen and ink, sculpture, ceramics, pottery, gourds, prints, graphic design, and architecture. This year's featured artists included Bonnie Lambert, Ken Saunders, Al Swanson, Sandy Shull, Tim Holmes, Dave Carlson, George McCauley, Andrea Atwood, Linda Parker, Bob and Judi Bennett, Margot Wright, Eric Van Eimeren, Jim Howard, Robin Maynard, Helena Printmakers Guild, Signs Now and Dowling Sandholm Architecture. The Archie Bray Foundation, Clay Arts Guild, Holter Museum, and the Upper Missouri Artists Gallery were also be part of the tour. 

Thank you to the donating businesses and artists who helped make the second annual Open Studios Tour fundraiser to support public art a great success!
