APRIL 20-24, 2022
The 2022 Coastal VA Plein Air will be held Wednesday, April 20 through Sunday, April 24, 2022 in Norfolk, Virginia. This popular arts event brings local, regional, and nationally known plein air artists to paint “en plein air” (in the open air) throughout our coastal community.
Several events will be held during the five-day festival. During the first few days and evenings, artists paint at various sites throughout the broader Tidewater community. The area is diverse and beautiful and paintings often include seascapes, cityscapes, gardens, architecture, and favorite landmarks, among other subjects. The event culminates with a Collector's Party where patrons have the first opportunity to purchase art. This is followed by a Public Art Show and Sale.
Funds raised are used to support public art and art education for the community.
A Note About Covid: Please note that outdoor and sale events will abide by any governmental regulations in place regarding Covid.
