DVAL Plein Air

DVAL Plein Air Events

DVAL members love plein air in almost any weather, and we are lucky to have a mind-boggling range of places to paint outdoors. Old farms, quirky towns, historic buildings, parks and gardens, rivers and nature centers all call out to us as we drive by.

To attend any of our Plein Air events, please complete the form below. We look forward to seeing you there!

*Please read the following carefully:
A board motion was approved on February 18, 2026 that DVAL full member artists who participated in the Willows plein air event may display up to two paintings for a $20.00 fee. If you paid $60.00 to participate in the Fine Art Sale at the Willows, then you do not have to pay the $20.00 fee. The caveat for all participating in the plein air event is the art had to be produced the day of the plein air event at the Willows. The paintings will be displayed separately at the Willows Fine Art Sale.
