About this Event

Thanks so much for your interest in the 8th Annual Gulfport Plein Air Festival, happening from April 12-17, 2027! We’d be thrilled to have you join us for this amazing Plein Air retreat. Get ready to meet new friends and catch up with old ones. The paint-outs are a fantastic opportunity to learn new techniques, and it’s always a joy to see the different styles of other artists.

Your week will be filled with five paint-outs around our beautiful town. We’ll also have several receptions with refreshments and drinks. Plus, there’s a workshop taught by a local instructor. The week will wrap up with an Art Exhibition featuring one of your paintings from the week. This exhibition will have a public reception where your painting could be sold, and you’ll get all the money from the sale!

We’re really excited to see you and can’t wait for a week packed with fun and adventure in Gulfport!
