Laguna Invitational Happy Hour Nocturne Paint Out

Laguna Invitational Happy Hour Nocturne Paint OutJust Plein Happy Hour: Laguna Plein Air After Dark Nocturne Paint Out

Tuesday, October 6th, 2026 | Starting 5:00 PM | Main Beach & Downtown Laguna Beach

As the sun prepares to dip below the horizon, prepare for an enchanting evening as the Laguna Invitational Artists gather for the annual “Just Plein Happy Hour – Laguna Plein Air After Dark” Nocturne Paint Out!

Starting around 5:00 PM, you’ll find our amazing Invitational artists setting up their easels around Main Beach, the Promenade on Forest Avenue , and throughout downtown Laguna Beach. Watch as they transform the evening light into captivating “en plein air” nocturne masterpieces, capturing the unique glow of Laguna after dark.

This is a truly special opportunity for the public to:

  • Meet the Artists in a relaxed, vibrant setting.
  • Witness the evening magic of nocturne painting unfold live.
  • Enjoy a Happy Hour and evening stroll in beautiful Laguna Beach.

This event is free and open to the public, and no advance registration is required. Just come, stroll, and immerse yourself in art under the stars!
