Download these fliers for your neighborhood
Feel free to download these fliers and make as many copies as you need for your neighborhood. These will print best if you use glossy or semi-glossy paper. We realize that not everyone will have a good enough printer, but someone in your group probably does. Also, you can take these pdf files to a local copy shop and most of them will be able to make copies directly from the file.

Post Cards
We realize that many of you prefer to make your own post cards, but for those who wish, you may purchase post cards from Silicon Valley Open Studios when you register. Two of our recent postcards are shown at the left. Each year we use images from those who order our cards before December 31st. The postcard designer selects 10 to 20 at her option to place on the front.
The back of the card has a place for your name and the address and site number for each of the three weekends of the Silicon Valley Open Studios event. Or, you can make your own labels to apply instead. The right hand part of the back is blank so you can apply your own address labels.
The cards will be delivered to you in late March so you will have a month to get them out to your mailing list.
SVOS Invitational Shows
In addition, participants in Silicon Valley Open Studios are eligible for consideration in one of the SVOS Invitational shows during the coming year. These shows are by invitation to SVOS participating artists who have demonstrated outstanding ability in an on-going body of work.
