Plein Air Project – Future Generation Paint Out

LPAPA Kids

The Annual Future Generation Paint Out

Inspiring the Next Generation of Plein Air Masters

A highlight of the Annual Laguna Beach Plein Air Painting Invitational, the Future Generation Paint Out invites local students in grades 4 through 12 to step out of the classroom and into the beauty of nature.

🎨 The Mentorship Experience

During this immersive event, students from each grade level are paired with a professional LPAPA artist. Under this expert guidance, students are mentored through the entire creative process—from the first brushstroke to a finished masterpiece—capturing the landscape in the timeless plein air painting tradition.

🖼️ Exhibition & Philanthropy

The students’ original works are professionally displayed at the LPAPA Gallery (414 N. Coast Highway, Laguna Beach) during the Invitational week and the remainder of October.

  • Supporting Local Schools: These student paintings are available for acquisition through a donation-based purchase.

  • 100% Impact: Every dollar raised is donated directly to the participating schools’ art programs, ensuring that creativity continues to flourish in our community.


Our Partners in Education

This program is made possible through the generous grant funding and dedicated support of:
The City of Laguna Beach & its Lodging Establishments
The Festival of Arts Foundation
The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel
