Step inside Exeter’s art scene: Fall tour brings 14 studios and galleries to life
EXETER — Whether you’re looking for a weekend outing or already easing into the holiday season, Exeter’s annual Fall Art Tour offers a chance to meet local artists and see what’s new in town. The self‑guided tour runs Nov. 7–8 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., with 14 stops ranging from Water Street galleries to tucked‑away home studios opening their doors for the event. Visitors can explore fine art, craft, studio collectives and individual workspaces, all within a three‑mile radius and at their own pace. Lauren Hutton, owner of Avery Art in downtown Exeter and a member of this year’s organizing group, said the tour serves several purposes: it gives visitors a chance to explore local art in public storefronts while also offering a rare look inside the home studios where much of that work is created. She said it’s also a way for artists to connect with the community and for residents to “see how vibrant the art community is in Exeter.” Hutton said she has participated in the art tour for three years and has been excited to see it grow each year. This year, she was involved in helping Rose Bryant, the founder of Art Up Front
