Artizan Collective is delighted to announce a weekend of outdoor art inspired by plein air tradition, as with the help of ten professional artists, we take over the streets and seafront to show off this creative town like you’ve never seen it before.

Day 2 - The Great Paignton Paint Out - Sunday 24th September - 10:30-16:00
Join us all on Paignton Seafront as we invite you to “Paint Paignton” with us. Whether you’re a pro, an aspiring talent, or have never picked up a brush before, this day is open to everyone to get involved. Bring your favourite art supplies or pick some freebies up on the day from our art station, and whether you’re a painter, prefer charcoals, or sketch on your iPad, it doesn’t matter, so long as you come on down to help us gather the biggest group of artists Paignton Green has ever seen. Get tips and advice, watch live demos throughout the day, but most importantly, create!
Whether you're spending the whole day or just passing through there'll be plenty to discover all day. Four of our commissioned artists will be producing new works in situ with talks and demos on every hour. Visiting artists will be sharing tips and on hand to help, and you can drop of your completed works to our pop-up gallery where they'll be in with a chance of being exhibited in showcases following the event. Plus, we'll have experts on Paignton's history on hand to tell you about the incredible heritage of the town.
