On Saturday, October 21, 2023, 10am – 4pm OSNA will be sponsoring the Old Southeast Artist Enclave Tour! Come see why the City of St. Petersburg named our Old Southeast neighborhood an official Artist Enclave where artists can create and market their arts or crafts!
Join other Old Southeast neighbors - and art lovers from all across the bay - for this exciting event! The tour is self-guided, and there is no fee. Pick up your map on the day of the event at the information tent in The Chattaway parking lot. Maps will also be available at each studio participating in the tour.
What is an Artist Enclave?
The Old Southeast Neighborhood is proud to be a designated Artist Enclave Overlay District. Overwhelmingly supported by Old Southeast residents in a 2013 vote, Artist Enclave designation was granted by the City of St. Petersburg in 2014. This special designation permits Old Southeast artists to enrich our neighborhood by using their residences as work studios, artist lofts, galleries, and instructional spaces. Thus, artists may live, create work, and market their art from home. The Old Southeast is one of only two St. Petersburg neighborhoods with an Artist Enclave designation (Historic Kenwood is the other).
