Paint the Town – Alpharetta Plein Air

October 20–24, 2026

Check back soon for updated 2026 information!

Once again, with the support of our partners Alpharetta Arts & Culture, Awesome Alpharetta, and Arts Alpharetta, we will host Paint the Town 2026, Alpharetta’s Plein Air Competition.

This annual “plein air” event draws artists from all around the southeast to paint live scenes from life in our fair city all week. The event culminates at the end of the week with an evening awards ceremony and reception at the Alpharetta Arts Center.

The call for artists is open now! To register, learn more, or become a sponsor, please visit Arts Alpharetta.
