The Great Plein Air Paint Out

Thursday, May 7 marks the beginning of the 2009 Great Plein Air Paint-out, which will run through Sunday, May 17.

This annual event brings scores of nationally recognized artists to the area to capture the allure of Florida's Forgotten Coast with paint and canvas.

The same as with last year’s event, artists will be painting on the beach, across the marsh, beside the lakes and throughout the streets of waterfront towns from Mexico Beach, Windmark, Port St. Joe, Cape San Blas, Apalachicola, Eastpoint, St. George Island, Carrabelle, and inland at Wewahitchka.

In addition, on May 10 and 11, noted maritime artist Donald Demers will teach two one-day field workshops as part of the Great Plein Air Paint-out experience.
