“Plein air” is a phrase borrowed from the French. It means “open air” and is used to describe the act of creating artwork (usually painting) outdoors, creating from observation of the surrounding scenery.

Thanks to the sponsorship of our friends at The York Water Company, Creative York will be hosting a late afternoon Plein Air Picnic on Wednesday, August 15th, 3-7pm at Lake Redman in York, PA. Light refreshments are included, but artists must provide their own supplies. All mediums are welcome!

NOTE: Artist set up locations are first come first serve, and shade at this gorgeous location is limited. Please plan accordingly – wear sunblock, hydrate, be prepared for open exposure to the sun, etc.

Artists will create outdoor scenes at the lake, then the artwork will be displayed for the public at York Water Company’s beautiful corporate building in historic downtown York, with an opening reception September 19th. Awards totaling $500 will be announced at the reception.
