Exhibit on display and for sale at SAM October 1 – Nov. 4, 2023
SAM’s Plein Air Event brings together the community and visitors with 50 artists from near and far as they paint on location.
Showcasing the beauty of the Yampa Valley, the art that is created during this extraordinary week spotlights historic landmarks, ranches, the landscape, the community of Steamboat Springs and our growing arts and cultural offerings.
This event is uniquely Steamboat!
This is becoming one of the most popular events among Plein Air artists because of our Steamboat hospitality and breathtaking scenery. Again, this year, there will be many unique events to get to know the artists and the judge and purchase work.
A perfect time to start or add to your collection. More details to come!
