About this Event

Join us in the heart of historic downtown Laurel for a fun and inspiring morning celebrating creativity, community, and young artists. We'll be located right across from the United Way of the Pine Belt. Look for the art park and we'll be there!

Kids’ En Plein Air – Laurel is an outdoor painting event designed to encourage creativity while supporting an important cause in our community. Young artists will create their own artwork in a relaxed and encouraging setting surrounded by the charm of Laurel’s downtown.

Registration is $25 per participant and includes all necessary art supplies and a snack, making it easy for families to simply bring their young artists and enjoy the experience.

Participants will also have the opportunity to win prizes in the following age categories:

• Ages 3–5
• Ages 6–8
• Ages 9–12
• Ages 13–15
• Ages 16–18

This event is open to the public, and parents, grandparents, guardians, and friends are welcome to attend, stroll through the event area, and watch the artists at work.

Register by March 31 to add a special limited-edition Kids’ En Plein Air T-shirt designed by artist Adam Trest for only $10. Regular pricing will be $15 for youth sizes and $20 for adult sizes. Design reveal coming soon!

Kids’ En Plein Air is also a fundraiser benefiting the Domestic Abuse Family Shelter (DAFS), which provides shelter, advocacy, and support services for survivors of domestic violence, human trafficking, and stalking throughout our region.

By participating, families are helping support life-saving services for survivors in our community while celebrating creativity, compassion, and community.
