16th Annual
Sedona Plein Air Festival
October 24–31, 2020

This year the Sedona Plein Air Festival will be a first of its kind – an all woman event. 25 women plein air artists will gather from around the country to celebrate our beautiful and unique landscape through an eight-day painting event. The Sedona Arts Center is celebrating The Year of the Woman as the theme for 2020, the centennial year of the 19th amendment allowing women the right to vote. We believe it is important to recognize women artists in a unique way and to empower women through the arts. Our keynote speaker this year is Lyn Boyer an artist who has been garnering national recognition through prestigious awards over the past four years. Lyn will be working with Arts Center staff to bring a very special group of women together for this event.

A keynote address mid-week will be presented by Lyn Boyer who also presents a 3.5 day workshop during the Festival and judges for awards at the Friday evening awards gala. The festival also includes three paint-out events where all artist’s paint and the public is invited to watch and buy. Each paint-out has its own awards accompanied by a sales event.

The festival is flanked by workshops that provide a variety of perspectives on landscape painting by nationally recognized artists. Learn more about landscape and plein air painting workshops HERE.
