Art in the Park

Artists will have an exciting opportunity to participate in the ‘Art in the Park’ plein air event, organized by Route 22 Artist Collective in Cochrane, in partnership with the Glenbow Ranch Park Foundation! This event is also part of the ‘Come Paint Alberta’ plein air circuit.
Registering online for this fun, two-day event and paint outdoors in the beautiful 3200 acres park of the Glenbow Ranch.
You can also find these Family Friendly ‘Art in the Park’ activities for all ages at Glenbow Ranch Park on May 25th, 2024:
– Landscape Collage & Dictionary Art
– Plein Air Sketching Kits (include customized Route 22 pocket sketchbook and pencil)
– Nature Scavenger Hunts
– Custom Button Badge Making

What to expect:
Registered artists will receive their swag bag and enjoy a continental breakfast at Route 22 Gallery! Artists will then head to the historic Glenbow Ranch Park Foundation to set up for some inspiring plein air painting. GRPF golf carts will be assisting with shuttling artists and their materials around the park. The GRPF tourist center will be open, but it is advisable to bring a packed lunch and water bottles as there are no other food services on site. Artists can enjoy a VIP Social event at Route 22 Gallery on May 25th (5-7pm). Artists can also submit their completed plein air artwork for our Live Art Auction at Route 22 Gallery on Sunday May 26th (2-4pm).

Parking at Glenbow Ranch Park is limited, so carpooling with a fellow artist from the Route 22 Gallery parking lot is also highly recommended!
