    Prescott News – From August 24-27, 2023, 16 juried professional plein air artists all hailing from Arizona will paint from Prescott’s beautiful forests, lakesides, and downtown historical and architectural beauty, as Yavapai College Prescott Art Gallery and the Highlands Center for Natural History present “Art in the Pines: The 4th Annual Prescott Plein Air Festival.”

    The artists may be found painting throughout Yavapai County, but the public is invited to observe and engage with them at no cost as they create their art at specific accessible demonstration sites.

    The Plein Air Festival’s pre-events will start Aug. 10 with an exhibition and sale of the artists’ studio work at Yavapai College Prescott Art Gallery. The pre-event exhibition will run from Aug. 10-Aug. 20, with a free opening reception on Saturday, Aug. 12, 5-7 p.m. in the gallery.
