This plein air festival celebrates the practice of creating visual artwork outdoors by inviting artists from across North America to embrace the challenge and create their best work for the opportunity to win awards. Artists create work inspired by the Niagara Escarpment in the Municipality of Hamilton. You’re invited to come see me and other artists in action and then view the Awards Show & Sale of the artwork completed during the festival.

It’s a celebration of art, nature and community!
