ABOUT THE SALEM COUNTY ART TOUR
The Salem County Art Tour (formerly Arts in Bloom) is an event where artists from all over Salem County come together to share their studios with the public for a two-day, county-wide event. We have been presenting our juried art tours in Salem County for 17 years. In 2023 we added an additional event - a Holiday Artisans Show where all the artisans will be together in one location - the Salem County Vocational Technical School. This year's Holiday Artisans Show is scheduled for November 15 & 16, 2025.
As in the past, our free art tour spans many locations throughout Salem County, NJ (towns such as Alloway, Elmer, Lower Alloways Creek, Monroeville, Pedricktown, Pennsville, Pittsgrove, Salem, and Woodstown). You will want to check our brochure and this website for details about all the sites and special activities for the whole family.
Our tour finds its origins with a group of artists gathering and discussing a way to promote art in Salem County. With assistance from James Turk, the director of the Salem County Cultural and Heritage Commission, the tour began. Along the way, we have received additional support from Salem County Directors of Tourism and Cultural Affairs Kathy Mills and Alyssa Caltabiano. We are also grateful to the Salem County Art League for serving as our fiscal partner for many years. We thank all who have helped us reach this point and we are looking forward to many more years of bringing art tours to the county as the Salem County Art Tour LLC.
The next Salem County Art Tour is scheduled for May 17 & 18, 2025.
