Events Description
Welcome to Paint The Foothills, Leighton Art Centre’s signature fall event where artists and community come together in a celebration of art and nature. We can’t wait to see you there!
Not a competitive painter? There’s still lots for you to enjoy! Come out to paint & picnic (or just picnic!) at your own pace, go for a walk along our nature trails and take in some truly spectacular views, and be inspired by dozens of talented artists creating on the land, under our big Alberta skies.
Be sure to attend the Opening Reception for our newest exhibitions on Saturday, Reconciling Home by Theresa Williams and Visiting with Beadwork organized by Hali Heavy Shield, Kalli Eagle Speaker, Carol Williams, and adapted by the Leighton Art Centre. And you can check out the completed plein air works in our Wet Paint Sale on Sunday! It’ll be a great day of art fun for the whole family.
