Who
we are

Outdoor Painters of Minnesota is a 501(c)3 charitable nonprofit formed to promote and share the practice of outdoor plein air painting. We are governed by an all-volunteer board of directors, with a membership of over 200 artists. We welcome new members of all backgrounds, at every level of experience, from Minnesota and beyond. OPM strives to coordinate outdoor painting activities, develop opportunities to exhibit together, educate both artists and non-artists in plein air painting, and inspire awareness of the beauty found in nature through painting outdoors.
