Although Plein Air artists have a knack for making even mundane scenery look beautiful, it makes for a great Plein Air Festival when the views are spectacular!  Such will be the case the week of June 25 - July 4th, 2020 in Midway, Utah.

The landscape in the Heber Valley is stunning, providing lake, mountain, and rural farm vistas; along with quaint historic homes and rustic barns that give professional and amateur artists plenty of subject matter to both challenge, and inspire their work.

Because Midway Art Association’s Plein Air Paradise event is so popular, it gets bigger every year, drawing a growing number of top professional artists, and savvy art collectors.  The festival features a Main ‘Plein Air’ Competition as well as local ‘Paint Outs’ and a 90 minute ‘Quick Draw & Auction’ which is a favorite of attendees as they watch amazing artists complete a masterwork in minutes!

The Midway Art Association is proud to provide a welcoming environment for artists of all levels through educational demos at their monthly meetings; member shows and sales; and of course the annual Plein Air Paradise event which highlights and promotes the work of artists from all parts of the county.  The 2020 Plein Air Paradise event is a great opportunity for participating artists and those who aspire to paint; as well as collectors who admire fine art.
