The twelfth 'Art in the Open' - an international plein air painting festival of paint-outs, workshops, exhibition and good company. The annual August event is open to all and attracts visitors from Europe, USA and all of Ireland to Wexford in the sunny south-east.
There's a killer line-up of workshop artists at 2019 Art in the Open - perhaps the best one yet - and some great venues to paint in, too. If you want to take advantage of our bus, it is at a subsidised price of just €30 from Monday to Friday and that also helps in not cluttering some of the locations with several dozen cars and campers - no-one wants to be painting those!
Grahame Booth (NI), Valerie Craig (USA), Vincent Crotty (USA), Anastasia Dukhanina (France), Thomas Jefferson Kitts (USA), Kate Kos (Ireland), Kevin Macpherson (USA), Ned Mueller (USA), Lori Putnam (USA), Peggi Kroll Roberts (USA), Ray Roberts (USA), Dave West (Ireland).
Register and book any workshops you want soon as there is a cap on participation and the workshops (limited to just 12 persons each) are filling fast. See you there!
By the way, we are looking for catchy a t-shirt theme for this, our twelfth festival. Last year we had the Nocturne design - 'plein air painters - doing it in the dark'.
Any inspiration for no.12? You don't have to design it (although suggestions would be welcome). We are just looking for a title, a theme or a slogan.

3 classics! I'm told the yellow ink glows in the dark when you're at the disco, Rene. Let us know if that's true, won't you/?
