Over 40 professional artists will spend two weeks in Grand Teton National Park as they participate in the fourth annual Plein Air for the Park fine art exhibition and sale.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Over 40 professional artists from across the United States will spend two weeks from July 6-19 capturing on canvas the exceptional beauty of Grand Teton National Park during the annual ‘Plein Air for the Park’ fine art exhibition and sale. This marks the fourth \u2018Plein Air for the Park\u2019 gathering and each year, the event is co-hosted by Grand Teton Association and the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters. All painting demonstrations and events are free and open to the public.<\/p>\n

The nationally recognized \u2018Plein Air for the Park\u2019 event includes demonstrations, exhibitions and art sales that culminate with a quick draw on Saturday, July 18, at the Craig Thomas Discovery and Visitor Center. The public is invited to watch artwork created from start-to-finish, and all paintings may be purchased for a fixed-price immediately following the quick draw, or during the gala and opening reception on July 15, according to a statement released by the park’s public affairs office.<\/p>\n

Forty percent of the proceeds from sales made during \u2018Plein Air for the Park\u2019 will benefit GTA and help fund ongoing educational, interpretive and scientific programs in support of Grand Teton National Park.<\/p>\n

“This mid-summer event has grown each year as a result of the dedicated and enthusiastic support and sponsorship of our park partner, Grand Teton Association, and the Rocky Mountain Plein Air Painters,” said Grand Teton National Park Superintendent David Vela. \u201cThanks to their combined efforts, visitors can experience the beauty of this incredible Teton landscape through the eyes of an artist. They may also purchase a piece of art that not only provides a lasting memory, but also benefits Grand Teton through the invaluable work of the GTA.\u201d<\/p>\n
