Paint it Orange Plein Air Paint-out Youth Competition

The Orange County Arts Commission presents the 7th Annual Paint It Orange Plein Air Paint-Out and Wet Paint Sale October 4-6, 2023. Last year’s Paint it Orange hosted 66 painters from four states, and sold 22 paintings during the Wet Paint Sale! The event celebrates artists of all types and all abilities and combines gorgeous scenery with the opportunity to meet other painters from around the region. Read about last year’s winners here.

New this year, we have added a youth competition open to 50 middle and high schoolers in both Orange County school systems. Artwork will be displayed in the Eno Arts Mill Hall Gallery and judged by Paint it Orange Juror Scott Boyle, with both students and the 1st Place school art departments winning cash prizes! Registration is free but required. Registration deadline is Monday, September 25.
