The Eagle Plein Air Festival, now in its 9th year, attracts painters from all over the Northwest to embrace the “not-so-simple” art of painting outdoors. Plein air, a French expression meaning “into the open air,” adds an element of unpredictability and excitement to the festival. With paint outs, free art demonstrations, competitions, and the final show and sale, the festival is a diverse artistic experience. Every day there’s a different destination to go watch artists. Bring a folding chair, take free art classes and watch demonstrations held outside at Finer Frames from 11am – 1pm everyday.
