Canada Paints Plein Air Competition

Calgary's Canada Paints Plein Air Competition returns for its second year, bringing dozens of artists to Fish Creek Provincial Park to paint the surrounding landscape en plein air during a timed outdoor challenge. The public is invited to wander the Bow Valley area of the park and watch the paintings take shape, then browse an Art Show & Sale where the works finished that day are displayed and available to purchase. Wildcard entry is open to any artist who wants to compete for cash prizes and sponsor giveaways alongside the juried finalists.
