Members of the “Off the Beaten Path Studio Tour” group, Chamber leaders, and local public officials gathered at the site of a new road sign Tuesday funded by Robin and Kristie Driver, owners of Center Hill Realty and Chalets.

The new sign, located at North Congress Boulevard and Church Street, will let tourists and others arriving in Smithville know that the annual studio tour, hosted by local crafters and artisans, is held on the last full weekend of every October. The tour began in 1999. This year’s event will be October 25-27. Artists will be demonstrating their craft mediums and offering handcrafted shopping opportunities at every stop on the tour.

In 2018, the tour featured more than 30 individual artists at 14 studio stops.
