Miami Plein Aire brings artists together to celebrate and expand South Florida’s Plein Air community through collaborative events and vibrant outdoor painting experiences.

Miami Plein Aire

Plein air comes from the French en plein air, meaning “in the open air”, and refers to the act of painting outdoors, directly from the landscape, rather than in a studio.

Artists who work en plein air aim to capture the natural light, atmosphere, and immediate impression of a scene. It is about being present, observing life as it unfolds, and expressing those observations in real time.
