Join the Town of Pike Road Oct. 8-11 as artists from across the River Region and beyond bring their creative spirits and fresh perspectives to our hometown for the 14th annual Pike Road Plein Air Paint Out.

Plein air painting is fast-paced, outside (plein air is French for “outdoors”) and focuses on landscapes and scenes’ ever-changing light and colors.

Pike Road Arts Council Coordinator, Patty Payne, welcomes and invites the whole community to join in the fun of the Pike Road, Alabama 2025 Paint Out featuring Alabama Plein Air Artists. This year’s theme is “At Home in Pike Road.” Participating artists will be out and about during the weekend, capturing the unique rural charm and treasured community characteristics that make the Town of Pike Road such a special place to live and visit.

We encourage everyone to stop, say hello, and share that Pike Road “Welcome Home” hospitality as artists disperse and paint around the Town. We look forward to seeing the familiar faces of artists who have been painting with us for the last 14 years, and we welcome new artists joining us for the first time!
