EASTON (July 26, 2018)
Plein Air Easton, the largest and most prestigious plein air festival in the nation, just completed its most successful year since its inception 14 years ago. It is widely recognized that a huge part of that success is a result of strong community support for the event and remarkably diverse partnerships among the event’s producer, the Avalon Foundation, Friends of Plein Air and a myriad of local organizations. This support, rooted in a deep sense of place, has enabled the event to continue to grow and expand year after year.
Watch along with us LIVE as we broadcast the Rehearse Quick Draw presentation from the historic Avalon Theatre stage.

July 20th – 22nd at The Tidewater Inn
Our 2018 Local Color Show is dedicated in loving memory of the Working Artist’s devoted and beloved artist/member, the remarkable and talented, Perry Foster.
Plein Air Easton’s Quick Draw Competition (this year held on Saturday, July 21st) is the most exciting event held within the week. In this fast-paced skilled painting competition, any artist with $10 and ambition has 2 hours to turn a blank canvas into a completed painting. The event has been known to have as many as 200 artists vying for any patch of shade to produce their best work surrounded by crowds of people strolling through the streets. It can be both exhilarating and frightening to even the most seasoned artists.
