To reach us by email directly: signup@balapleinair.ca
Bala Plein Air sessions and events are open to everyone, and are free (no charge). Whether visiting Bala, living in Bala or a short drive away you can join us typically on Wednesdays at the scheduled location. If it rains on Wednesday, we will reschedule to Thursday.
Beginners and experienced artists are welcome and we encourage all media – watercolour, oil, acrylic, gauche, pastel, pencil, fabric, digital. Younger people must be accompanied by an adult.
If you are short on basic art supplies see the friendly staff at the Muskoka Emporium Liquidation Centre, 3067 Hwy 169 near the hotel in Bala to get you started.
As we grow our group we will venture out beyond Bala. Let us know if you have a unique outdoor vista that a group of artists could set up for a few hours. We are a friendly bunch, connecting through art. As our motto says…. “Be Art, Love Art“.
