The AVAST directory is a resource for finding and connecting with Arlington artists year-round. Discover painters, photographers, jewelers, sculptors, printmakers, ceramists, and illustrators, plus artists in wood, makeup, fiber, video, calligraphy, paper, pastel, and collage!

The AVAST tour is held on a fall weekend each year, and offers visitors opportunity to connect with dozens of artists in their studio environments over two days. The 2024 tour was September 21 and 22, with 21 sites throughout the county.

AVAST partners with local galleries, arts organizations, and businesses to host art shows and events that foster dialogue, promote interaction, and deepen the role of art in our community. We also maintain an archive of previous tours, providing annual snapshots of artists in the county.
