Art in Motion
Experience art in motion as we welcome the Mid-Atlantic Plein Air Painters Association (MAPAPA) for a vibrant week of live painting.
Watch creativity unfold in real time as talented artists set up their easels and bring landscapes to life right before your eyes. Visitors are invited to stroll through the grounds, chat with the painters, and gain a behind-the-scenes look at their process throughout the day.
The week culminates on Sunday, May 24, at 1 PM with a special unveiling of the completed works. Select pieces will be available for purchase in the Museum Store—offering a unique chance to take home an original, locally inspired work of art.
Whether you’re an aspiring artist or simply curious, this is a wonderful opportunity to connect with the creative community and discover how you can become part of Maryland’s thriving art scene.
