En plein air (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃ plɛn ɛːʁ], French for outdoors, or plein air painting) is the act of painting outdoors. The talented artist Shannon Shine will lead a plein air painting workshop in the beautiful wildflower fields of Camp Creek State Park. Meet at the Camp Creek State Park amphitheater at 3:30pm and enjoy a beautiful ride up to a remote area of The Forrest. No experience necessary. Cost to attend is $40. Lapboards, canvases and paint will be provided.
Note: because this is a wildlife area, there is no guarantee the flowers will be in bloom during this time. One year, the wildflowers were consumed by hungry deer. Though the sunflowers didn't survive, Camp Creek State Park and Forrest is a beautiful sight to behold at any time. The Peak of the Summer is a special time, and activities will highlight this natural beauty, with sunflowers or not!
Reserve your spot now, as this event is likely to sell out.
