SUMMARY:3rd Annual Prescott Plein Air Art Festival
DESCRIPTION:From October 13-16\, 2022\, fifteen professional artists will take their studios outdoors\, painting at scenic locations around the Prescott area as part of the 3rd Annual Prescott Plein Air Art Festival. Presented by the Highlands Center for Natural History and the City of Prescott\, in partnership with the Prescott National Forest and Touchmark at the Ranch\, this special event will showcase Prescott's natural\, historical\, and architectural beauty. There will also be pre-Festival events beginning in May\, including workshops for adults and children\, a pre-exhibit and sale at Yavapai College Gallery\, artist demos\, an "Artists in the Gardens" reception and a post-exhibit and sale at Mountain Artists Guild in Prescott. Referencing the French expression for "in the open air\," plein air art festivals involve artists who paint in outdoor settings and strive to capture the spirit and essence of a landscape or subject by incorporating natural light\, color\, and movement into their work. Artists participating in the Prescott Plein Air Art Festival have been selected by a jury and hail from across Arizona\, as well as Colorado and Utah. They may be found painting anywhere throughout the Prescott area\, but the public is invited to observe and engage with them at no cost as they create their art at specific accessible sites\, at the Constellation Trailhead and at the downtown Courthouse Plaza. In October\, the Plein Air Art Festival will launch on the 13th with three days of painting and conclude on the 16th with an Artist Reception\, Gallery and Sale at the Finn at Touchmark at the Ranch. This closing reception will offer guests an opportunity to visit with the artists\, learn more about the plein air style of painting and purchase one-of-a-kind pieces directly from the artists. Following the reception\, the Mountain Artists Guild will host a post-exhibit and sale.
