News from: Old Town Artisan Studios
Old Town Artisan Studios is gearing up for a season filled with creativity, community, and celebration as it launches three signature events this fall and winter. From the musically rich Art of Music series beginning October 9, to the lively Open Mic Nights starting October 20, and the enchanting holiday tradition of Gingerbread Lane in December, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
We have Art of Music kicking off next week, on October 9th from 6:00pm – 7:30pm. Art of Music is scheduled for the Second Thursday of every month (Oct 9, Nov 13, Dec 11, Jan 8, Feb 12, Mar 12, Apr 9).
- Jam on the Rocks Productions proudly presents The Art of Music at Old Town Artisan Studios. Inspired by the mission of OTAS, this series fuses musical performance with conversation, education, and storytelling. Each presentation will focus on an element of musical theory, history, genre or style by featuring expert musicians here to share their craft. Join us on the historic Old Town Artisan Studios campus and be swept up by the beautiful surroundings, engaging community, and world-renowned talent.
- Tickets: $20 – $50
We also have Open Mic Night beginning on Oct 20th. This event is free to the public and repeats every third Monday of the month (fourth in February due to the holiday.) Oct 20, Nov 17, Dec 15, Jan 19, Feb 23, Mar 16, Apr 20
- Join us for an evening of performances and a featured FOOD VENDOR! Calling all musicians, poets, comedians, songwriters, storytellers, and artists alike! Old Town Artisan Studios is hosting a monthly Open Mic Night with stage, PA, and host. Come and share with us every third Monday of the month from 6 to 8 pm in our beautiful outdoor courtyard. Practice your skills, gain confidence by performing in front of others in a supportive environment, and connect with and learn from other artists. To amplify the experience, we are bringing food trucks to Open Mic in the large parking lot at the main entrance of OTAS. Limited seating and tables will be available within the lower patio and courtyard.
Finally, we have Gingerbread Lane on Dec 6th, 13th, and 20th!
- Each year, Old Town Artisan Studios transforms its 3-acre art campus into Gingerbread Lane—a magical winter wonderland filled with dazzling lights, trimmed garlands, and a stunning 17-foot tree beside Santa’s workshop. From the moment you step through the gates, you’ll be immersed in the festive spirit of the season!
- Marvel at twinkling displays and savor holiday treats like gingerbread cookies and hot cider from our culinary corner. Let your creativity shine with hands-on activities, including cookie decorating and clay ornament painting. Enjoy live performances featuring seasonal music, delightful dance, and special showcases by talented youth groups from across the Coachella Valley—all at no cost to you and your family. Capture cherished memories at our beautifully decorated Holiday Cottage, where Santa and Mrs. Claus make special appearances.
