Somerville, Massachusetts—one of the most artist-dense cities in the United States—is gearing up for its biggest annual celebration of visual arts: the 27th Annual Somerville Open Studios (SOS). On Saturday and Sunday, May 2–3, 2026, from 12–6 PM each day, more than 430 local visual artists will open their doors at over 120 studios, homes, and buildings across the city.
This free, citywide event offers a unique opportunity to meet makers in their creative spaces, browse original paintings, sculptures, photography, mixed media, ceramics, and more, and connect directly with the vibrant artistic community that makes Somerville special. Whether you're a longtime art lover, a curious first-timer, or looking for unique gifts and inspiration, SOS transforms the city into a living gallery.
