Plein Air Fest
January 24, 2026 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm
Celebrate art in the Garden! Find inspiration in nature as nearly a dozen artists from the Naples Art District work in the tradition of painting en plein air (“in the open air”). Talk with the artists, ask questions, and learn about a variety of artistic practices. Art-themed family activities will provide a hands-on experience, and aspiring artists of all ages are invited to get creative and make their own piece of plein air art to take home.
