NEW BERN—ORIENTAL —BEAUFORT |
So..what’s new in 2022We’ve been busy since Plein Air New Bern came on the scene in 2021, which was a simple affair due to the pandemic, but 2022 is the “real deal” with 35 feature artist vying for over $12K. We’ve added multiple opportunities to interact with the creative process of plein air (outdoor) painting through demos, a youth program, “Artists to Artists” programs, a festive Collector’s ticketed evening, a small work exhibit, a robust donor program and the addition of Beaufort as a venue. |
Who is Plein Air New Bern?We are one of the newest 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization serving the counties of Craven, Pamlico, and Carteret. Q: What do we do? Our mission is to nurture visual art education & experiences through the art of plein air painting. Q: How do we do this? We invited 35 nationally acclaimed plein air artists to come paint our community allowing our citizens to watch & become part of the creative process. In return we provide hosting, sales venues, & create events to increase appreciation and ownership of the visual arts.
