Lakeside Northcoast Plein Air Paintout

This three-day event begins on Friday when more than 40 plein air artists arrive to paint outdoor landscapes. The term “en plein air” means painting “in the open air.” The artists will be painting scenes throughout the community, and all are invited to watch them paint.

On Sunday, the Lakeside waterfront will transform into an outdoor showroom of classic wooden boats, as cruisers line the lawn of Hotel Lakeside for the Annual Lakeside Wooden Boat Show from 12-4 p.m. More than 30 wooden boats, each classified by the year it was made, will be featured.

Paintings that were completed by the plein air artists throughout the weekend will be available for purchase during the Wet Paint Sale from 1:30-3:30 p.m. south of the Pavilion. Purchases can be made with cash, check or credit card.
