Plein Air Painting Masterclass

The Bloedel Reserve Plein Air Program is pleased to bring together some of the finest Plein Air artists in the region. In 2023, the Reserve is offering several days of painting on the grounds, including two days of Masterclass mornings with afternoon time to paint on the grounds.

This event happens on August 22nd, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. All levels are welcomed to attend this Plein Air Masterclass with Darrell Anderson (see image of pond with Bloedel residence), assisted by Gigi Godfrey Masterclass.

Participants will gather at the Arrival Garden between 10:30 a.m. and 10:45 a.m. and head up to a behind the scenes location for the class. The class may include a mixture of live demonstration, conversation, and painting. Participants need to have their own supplies and equipment. This can be as simple as a sketchbook and pencils, or as much as a full paintbox, folding chair and easel, or anywhere in between. Please also have a sack lunch and water bottle.

Limit 10 participants $130 Members $170 non-members (includes admission).
