About The Event
La Côte en Plein Air, started in 2018 by Art Space 86, is a week long gathering of painters on the Mississippi Gulf Coast with the purpose of building community among artists and further promoting what they do. This year’s event is co-presented by the Walter Anderson Museum of Art, and invites painters to share in fellowship and creativity through plein air painting in the coast’s myriad environments. Following the week of painting, participants are encouraged to exhibit their work at the Walter Anderson Museum of Art’s Art Cottage.
