THE WORD ON ART

As you walk into The Studio Door art gallery this month, you’ll find more than paint on canvas or glass in the kiln. You’ll discover a living, breathing community of artists. Each person at a different stage of their creative journey, yet bound together by the shared rhythm of making. That sense of connection takes center stage in The Studio Door Studio Artists: Past & Present, an exhibition running September 4 – 26, 2025, that brings together 31 artists who have called the gallery home over the years. Think of it as a visual check-in. An opportunity to see how their work has grown, what inspires them now, and how this space has shaped their practice.

Visitors are encouraged to support San Diego’s local art scene by purchasing artwork and making personal connections with our professional artists.
