| Event Description |
The Torrey Pines Natural Reserve Docent Society and Torrey Pines Association present the fourth annual Art in the Pines. The Festival is free and open to all and will be held at the Reserve just south of the Lodge.
Art in the Pines is a two-day event featuring a professionally judged plein air contest with an awards ceremony; artists’ booths exhibiting nature-inspired art for sale in a variety of media such as painting, pastels, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, and photography; food; live music; children’s art activities; a raffle and silent auction; guided nature walks; tours of the historic Torrey Pines Lodge; and expert demonstrations in painting and basket weaving.
This year, for the first time, artist participation has been open to all California residents. This juried art show features over 50 artists from well-known masters of the landscape to new talent.
Guests are encouraged to hike the Reserve during all of April and the beginning of May to observe dozens of artists at work. These paintings will be judged and awarded cash prizes and ribbons at noon on Saturday and then be available for sale the weekend of the festival. |
