This highly-rated, free, self-guided driving tour of artist studios/galleries through scenic countryside in Montgomery, Frederick and Howard Counties is open two weekends this year.  Choose from 16 delightful destinations representing 50+ fine visual, sculptural, textile, and beverage (beer, wine, and tea) artists.  Each studio/gallery is a destination in itself -- located on working farms, in renovated barns and chicken coops, or in historic buildings.  Many of the galleries also show other artists’ work -- typically local artists.  Brochure, map and info can be found at www.countrysideartisans.com.
