Art in the Park 2025 – The Day

What a day. Perfect skies, lots of subject matter to paint, scores of artists to paint the views and a lot of smiles all around us. Thank you to everyone who joined us on the day. Putting on an event of this size means a huge amount of hard work behind the scenes so hats off to the Art in Poundbury Team who made it happen.

Some feedback from the day:-

“I’ve painted at a few plein air events before and this was by far the most enjoyable. Of course the weather helped but everyone was so friendly and engaged, plus there was gluten free food available at the cafe! And toilets. Many thanks for giving us artists such a wonderful time” Mary B

Thank you so much for such a wonderful day yesterday, we had a brilliant time and my daughter and nieces were so engaged and inspired by it.  Please do more! Especially getting children involved! Gemma B

A big ‘thank you’ for a really lovely day with you all yesterday. As with the other ‘en plein air’ AIP events we have attended, it was so nice to interact with the public as we painted, who were so encouraging and complementary.

“These events must take a huge amount of organising, but on the day seem to take place in what seems such a friendly, relaxed and welcoming manner. Well done to you all and thanks again for a lovely day”.  Jo S
