The Hull Artists Open Studios is scheduled for Sept. 17-18, giving the public a chance to visit with and learn more about the artists in their home studios and at other locations around town.

In July, a similar tour drew 500 people, and organizers are hopeful that the fall version, which features more than 20 artists at 13 locations, will match or exceed that showing. The hours for this weekend’s event are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and admission is free.

This year’s sponsors, who enable the Hull Artists to better promote the event, are the O’Brien family and Jake’s Seafood Restaurant (the lead sponsor), Charisma Realty, Rockland-based Panopticon, Inc., and the Massachusetts Cultural Council.

Fliers are available at businesses around Hull that feature a map of the studio locations, as well as a description of the artists and their art.

For further details, visit HullArtists.com/OpenStudios or stop in at Hull Artists’ Gallery Nantasket, 121 Nantasket Ave., on the first floor of the Ocean Place Condominiums.

The Open Studios tour is one of three major events this weekend in Hull – as Hull Porchfest takes place on Saturday and the annual car show is scheduled for Sunday morning.
