Plein Air Weekend 2026

Bring your own painting supplies, come and go as you please; no formal instruction, just artists painting together.No signup fee, thanks to generous support from Big Bend Arts Council.But please let me know if you are coming so we have a head count. Once again we will have Camp  Peak (between Alpine and Fort Davis) as our Home Base for this event. There are loads of painting subjects at the camp, PLUS we have been invited to paint at three private ranches over the course of the five days.
