2020 Mini-Workshops & Instructors
Daily schedule as of 7-22-2020:
From September 12-16, 2020, 16 of our Competition Artists who are professional plein air painters will offer a 3-hour workshop during Competition Week for a morning (9a-12p), afternoon (1-4p) or evening (7-10p) session. These Mini-Workshops are open to anyone interested to watch, paint, learn, and get inspired.
Many Mini-Workshops will be live-streamed or recorded for viewing via private YouTube link by participants who are staying at home.
Cost to participate in a workshop is $50.00. Competition and Open Class painters may sign up for workshops, but paintings created in workshops are ineligible for the competition or exhibit. Click the Sign Up button for any workshop to view details and register.
