The Festival
: On September 25th 2021Drawing America in Partnership with The Olana State Historic Site, and The Olana Partnership will host The Olana Plein Air Festival! We anticipate the participation of well over 100 artists painting on-site. To help us launch this event we are asking for your support.

The Location: This festival takes place at Olana, the former home of artist Fredric Church, co-founder of The Hudson River School of Art. In addition to the stunning architecture of the home overlooking the Hudson River, there are 250-acres of artist-designed landscapes and sweeping views of the Catskills. Olana is the perfect place to share artistic inspiration!

The Mandate:  The Olana Partnership and Olana State Historic Site’s Director, Amy Hausmann asked Drawing America to create a festival that is accessible to the widest possible audience by removing any barriers of attending associated with cost. As a result...

The Artists: ...all of the world-class artists offering workshops have agreed to do so at significantly reduced rates. Every single one agreed without hesitation!

The Goal: Our goal is to make this an annual event committed to creativity, inclusion, and accessibility to all those who wish to attend. We ask for your help to achieve this goal.
