It is a project of the Avalon Foundation\, Inc.  Celebrating its 19th year in 2023\, the competition is held in Easton\, Maryland each July.  Plein air painters produce art from life in the open outdoors\, as opposed to in the studio. Artists from all over the United States and beyond apply to this competition beginning December 1st of the previous year.  Fifty-eight artists are juried into the competition by a unique juror each year. Once selected\, the competing artists travel to Talbot County to paint throughout the week.

This event draws many visitors to Talbot County to witness such talent in action!\n\n \n\nThe Talbot Chamber and EEDC co-host the Plein Air Kick Off Party from 5-9pm on the first day of the festival by providing raffle tickets to participating businesses for their customers to enter to win lots of wonderful door prizes during the drawing at 7:15pm.
