Come to the canyon and watch as some of the most accomplished plein-air artists from across the U.S. create artwork for the Celebration of Art sale and exhibition! These artists have the majestic Grand Canyon as their backdrop—from the soft, delicate shadows of the early morning to the resplendent golden glow of sunset. Engage and learn from them about style, technique, and their canyon inspiration as the magic of plein-air painting unfolds in real-time.
