SEPTEMBER 18TH - SEPTEMBER 21ST

Malone, NY - The Thrive Project with the Downtown Artist Cellar (DAC), a leading art gallery and community space, is thrilled to announce the second annual Salmon River Valley Plein Air Festival. This year's event will feature over 20 talented plein air artists from around the region, each bringing their unique perspective to capture the stunning beauty of the Salmon River Valley. The festival is a celebration of creativity, nature, and community, showcasing the transformative power of art.

Taking place from September 18th to September 21st, the festival aims to bring together the community to foster a deeper connection to the unique charm and natural wonders of our area.

What is Plein Air?

Plein air painting refers to the practice of painting outdoors, directly from nature, rather than in a studio. The term comes from the French expression "en plein air", meaning "in the open air." This technique allows artists to capture natural light, atmosphere, and environmental conditions in real-time, resulting in vibrant, dynamic artworks that often reflect the mood and color of the landscape at a particular moment. Famous plein air painters include Claude Monet, a leader of the Impressionist movement, and Vincent van Gogh, who painted many of his landscapes directly from nature.
