Be the first to learn of the award winning artists and artwork. Each of the 35 artists will submit what they consider to be their three “best” paintings created during the Invitational week to be judged for the awards to be revealed during the gala reception. Artists are competing for over $20,000 in cash and prizes, including the coveted $10,000 Best in Show award.

In addition to the 105 paintings showcased for the prize competition, each artist will have a selection of additional paintings created during the week and/or from their private studios; cover 300 original works of art in all! Invitational artwork will only be available at the Collectors Gala and Sunday’s Invitational Art Show. Artwork sold during the Collectors Gala will go home with its collector at the end of the evening, and sold artwork will be refreshed for Sunday’s show.

Doors will open at 7pm (immediately following the private reception for VIP Sponsors and Donors) and art sales will commence. Guests will enjoy a magical evening under the stars with artists and art lovers, as LPAPA creates the ultimate plein air fine art experience… meet and mingle with the artists, enjoy delicious cuisine selections, no-host fine wines and lively cocktail selections. A special 2017 collectable Art Catalogue, created exclusively for this event, and complimentary valet parking are included in the ticket price.

Proceeds from the sale of artwork benefits the artists and nonprofit Laguna Plein Air Painters Association and its mission to preserve the plein air painting tradition and Laguna’s 100+ year old artistic legacy.

Join the celebration… be part of the tradition!
