Mission San Juan Capistrano Exhibition - En Plein Air

This spring a new exhibit, En Plein Air,  will open to the public featuring plein air artworks from the Mission San Juan Capistrano collection spanning from the early 1900s to 2016.⁠  This style of painting became possible in the late 1800s with the invention of the portable paint tube which allowed artists to take their supplies with them anywhere rather than being confined to an indoor studio.⁠

⁠Plan your visit to the Mission to see these beautiful artworks up close.  The exhibit is free for Mission members or with paid admission.
