Margaret River Region Open Studios

Margaret River Region Open Studios is an adventure in art and a rare chance to visit the private studios of 150+ artists - spaces not usually open to the public.

The free event has grown into an award-winning celebration of culture and creativity, nurturing new talent and connecting artists with art lovers. Over $2 million of art sold in 2025, delivering the region an estimated economic benefit of $10 million.

Working within a tight-knit marketing team and supported by the volunteer committee, it’s a pleasure and a privilege to manage Open Studios’ social media, newsletters and website, manage content development and tourism connections.

Working to the same budget, we increased the 2024 Facebook Reach 50%, grew the email database 7% and developed new destination-style video that was shared by two of the state’s largest tourism accounts; Western Australia and Australia’s South West.


“Lizzy brings a wealth of knowledge and understanding to the role and encouraged us to innovate with written, photo and video content. She is a delight to deal with, has trained our artists and brought a wealth of useful contacts. We have recently increased Lizzy’s role by adding website management responsibility. We also unhesitatingly recommend her to potential new clients.”
— Jim Davies, Chair, Margaret River Region Open Studios

Kirstie Pallier

I'm Kirstie Pallier, and BYKP is my strategy-led web design studio in Dunsborough, Western Australia. I build Squarespace and Shopify websites for founder-led businesses across the South West, Perth and regional WA.

Every project starts with understanding the business first: who it's for, what it needs to do, and where it's heading. The design and build come second, so the finished site is something that actually works for the business, not just something that looks good on launch day.

I've been a Squarespace Circle partner since 2018 (now Platinum) and I'm a Shopify Partner. Many of my clients stay on long after launch, and I keep working with a small number of them as their businesses grow.
