North Coast Open Studios 2026

Welcome to the 26th Annual North Coast Open Studios!

Join us for North Coast Open Studios Art Night, Friday, June 5, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. A listing of participating artists and Art Night-specific maps are on pages 4-5.

Weekend 1 is June 6-7 and Weekend 2 is June 13-14. Studios are open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, unless otherwise noted.

North Coast Open Studios, a DreamMaker project of the Ink People, is an annual showcase of local artists and their art in Humboldt County. Included in this guide, you will find listings for artists who are opening their studios (their “natural habitats,” if you will) to the public, allowing art lovers a glimpse into the creative process.

Visitors to North Coast Open Studios will have an opportunity to see what happens inside an artist’s creative space. Meet the artists and see work from a wide array of art styles, including jewelry, printmaking, puppetry, ceramics, photography, sculpture, glass, and more. During this free

showcase for the arts, visit mid-career and emerging artists in traditional and non-traditional spaces. Talk to artists about their creative process, see their recent works, and purchase art.

WANT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT NORTH COAST OPEN STUDIOS?

Follow North Coast Open Studios on Facebook and Instagram, then visit our website at northcoastopenstudios.com for maps, additional images, artist information and more! Want to keep up-to-date on what is going on?

HOW TO USE THIS GUIDE

The artist listings are arranged alphabetically by community, listed regionally from North to South. Browse through to discover the artists you wish to visit. Check the maps, shown with each community listing, to find studios based on location. Looking for a specific artist? Check the Alphabetical index on page 37.

Each artist listing has general information about the artist, including an image of their work, the type of artwork they

create, directions to their studio, contact information, and which weekend (or weekends) they will be open. Artist listings also tell you whether or not the studio is wheelchair accessible (wheelchair logo) and if the artist is new to the event (Welcome, new Open Studios artists!).

At the end of the artist listings is a special section of artists who will not be open during either Open Studios weekend, but are open by appointment only, year-round. Also, if you can’t visit an artist during their open weekend, keep in mind that many artists enjoy visitors, and most will open their studios by appointment throughout the year.

However you plan your visit to North Coast Open Studios, you will find a dazzling display of fine arts and crafts to fit all styles and budgets. Get to know your local artists and enjoy the amazing variety of art Humboldt County has to offer!

North Coast Open Studios is a free event, so there is no admission charged at any venue.

THANK YOU to our Community Supporters For Helping to Make North Coast Open Studios Possible!

North Coast Open Studios is a DreamMaker project of the Ink People Center for Arts and Culture, and is supported by Humboldt County artists, businesses, and community members like you. NCOS would not be possible without the generous support of many people.

Thank you to our participating artists, both new to the event and long time participants. Obviously, North Coast Open Studios wouldn’t exist without you, but your appreciation and patience keep me coming back for more.

Thank you to my husband, Robot Adams, who delivers me snacks and drinks, and joins me for neighborhood strolls and runs to the hardware store when I need a break from the computer. And Alton, my musically inclined kiddo, who brings the music to me during event season.

Holly Harvey, our Guidebook Layout Goddess at the North Coast Journal, thank you for going above and beyond with your work, and just being the most excellent and supportive human.

Huge thanks to Barb at the 101 Things Publication who created most of the maps we have used for decades (including this year’s addition of Willow Creek), and to Kirk Shelton, who saves some of my sanity by taking on most of the Adobe Illustrator work that melts my brain.

Thank you to my Ink People coworkers, who support North Coast Open Studios as a DreamMaker project, and let me bounce event ideas off of them.

Thank you to the crew at the 40 Degrees North Gallery for hosting our May gallery show, as well as the volunteers who come back each year to hang the

SPONSORS

show – they’re truly pros. And thank you, Jess Waggoner, for supporting me by wrangling refreshments for the May Arts Alive reception. Thank you to our event sponsors, whose ongoing support keeps registration fees reasonable for participating artists. Please consider them when you’re in need of art supplies, financial institutions, printing needs, insurance, and more.

Lastly, thank you to the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors for allowing a portion of Measure J funding to support arts and culture – including North Coast Open Studios – in our community.

Coordinator & Participating Artist, North Coast Open Studios

North Coast Open Studios

First Friday Art Night

June

5th, 6 to 9 p.m.

North Coast Open Studios presents our annual Art Night, kicking off the two weekend event with an evening of Open Studios, the night before the main event starts –a soft opening, if you will.

Some folks work over the weekend, or have other engagements … or maybe just want time to see more art — NCOS Art Night is for you!

On pages 4-6, you’ll find a geographic listing of all of the participating artists, who are planning to open for this special Friday evening event. Next to their names, their listing number will tell you which location is theirs on the Friday Art Night maps. Further into the guidebook, you’ll find listings for each of these artists (alphabetically, by region), with a description of the artist’s work, address, directions to their studio (if needed), contact information, and a representative image of their work.

Please keep in mind that not every NCOS participating artist has chosen to open for the Art Night. The artists who will be open are in this section of the guidebook.

ALPHABETICAL ARTIST INDEX

North Coast Open Studios 2026 is dedicated to

Jeanie Hague

(July 24, 1941-April 13, 2026).

Jeanie volunteered for the Ink People Center for Arts and Culture since the 1980s, loved supporting local artists, visiting creative spaces, and socializing with everyone who walked through the door of the Ink People on Wednesdays. She is incredibly missed.

North Coast Open Studios is led by a team of working artists and community members dedicated to opening doors to artists in our community. This crew helps design posters and guidebooks, wrangle funding and treats for the May Arts Alive gallery reception, and spread the word about this annual event throughout the community.

Sage Alucero

Sage Alucero (they/them) is a multimedia artist. Their work is dedicated to bringing the enchantment of nature to the forefront of our perspectives. Their paintings, relief prints, and poems highlight the importance of connecting with nature as a relative and respecting diversity among all of Earth’s entities. Sage works at the Ink People as Marketing Director. You may also see them cocoordinating workshops with Color Maíz, an itinerant art lab centering BIPOC 2S/ LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent communities in Humboldt. Sage wishes everyone an inspiring Open Studios!

She has a deep appreciation for the roles that artists and cultural keepers play in a vibrant and healthy community.

Holly Harvey

Holly Harvey (she/her) is an artist, birdwatcher, gardener, fermenter, and cat lover. Professionally, she is a graphic artist and Production Manager for the North Coast Journal.

In college she balanced biology course work with studio art classes including painting, printmaking, weaving, and scientific illustration. She practices Japanese tea ceremony, and her affiliation with the Eureka-Kamisu Sister City Association prompted her to paint an otter for the North Coast Otter Project in 2020.

It has been her pleasure to play a small part of North Coast Open Studios and witness its growth since its beginning with artists Susan Fox and Sasha Pepper.

Monica Topping-Adams

Monica Topping-Adams (she/her) has coordinated North Coast Open Studios since 2014. She has more than 20 years of event experience and prides herself on being a conduit between artists and culture bearers, and local resources and connections.

Monica has been a Rutabaga Queen for the Kinetic Grand Championship since 2004, a Kinetic Art Judge since 2014, currently chairs the City of Eureka’s Art and Culture Commission, won the Victor Thomas Jacoby Award in 2016 for her work turning recycled glass into wearable art, was chosen as the City of Eureka’s Artist of the Year in 2020, and works at the Ink People Center for Arts and Culture as the Administrative Director.

Outside of North Coast Open Studios season, Monica is the owner and jewelry designer behind Rock Chick Designs.

Jesseca Waggoner

Jesseca Waggoner (she/her) has worked and volunteered in Humboldt for the last 20+ years. She is currently utilizing the skills acquired from her recently acquired MBA from Cal Poly Humboldt, while working as an assistant and cheerleader for multiple local artists. Always eager to throw a party, she was excited to be brought on board to assist with the Kickoff Event!

From a young age, Jesseca has always kept her hands busy with crocheted and knitted projects but never considered herself artistic in any way. It has only been recently that she has begun to accept that traditional fiber, and the not-so-traditional plastic bag yarn (plarn), are her own artistic mediums and she’s been an artist all along. You can see more of her artistic endeavors on Instagram @lifestyleart_by_jess and Facebook @lifestyleartbyjess.
