Gasworks Arts Park is thrilled to be able to present Paint Out 2021. This is an En Plein Air event for professional & amateur artists, arty people and nature lovers. En Plein Air is a French expression that means in the open air and is most often used to reference the act of painting and sketching outdoors with the artists subject in full view. Paint, draw or sketch anywhere over our four hectares of beautiful parklands at Gasworks. Choose a site in the park that inspires you and create an artwork of what you see and feel.  This years event will be run differently to ensure social distancing while providing creative opportunities in the fresh air, and prizes! There will be eight sessions run over three hours each on the following two weekends: Saturday and Sunday, 27 & 28 November Saturday and Sunday, 4 & 5 December At the end of each Paint Out session the completed artworks will be hung in the Foyer Gallery until January 9, so visitors can come and enjoy the art. The exhibition will also be hosted online via the Gasworks website. All artworks in the exhibition will be eligible to win one of four $1,000 prizes; tailored to give amateur artists as well as professionals a fair chance of winning one of them.
