Plein AiR Patrol Blitz during the Forest Stearns Exhibition

As part of Forest Stearns Artist in Residency project, the Garden is thrilled to host a morning of communal outdoor drawing/painting inspired by the diverse settings of our collections. This event is for everyone, no matter what your background in art may be, join us!

During this event you can shadow Forest in action and ask questions, discover other experienced artists’ style and approach, work on your own piece, or just see the Garden in new ways. We welcome you to become an artist in the Blitz with some simple art supplies, time for observation, and an openness to putting your creativity to paper.

We’d love to see images of your work! Tag us on Instagram @ucbgarden.

Plein AiR Patrol is Forest Stearns’ Artist in Residency (AiR) project at the Garden, inviting the community to a monthly committed art practice at the Botanical Garden.
