I’m pleased to announce that I’ve scheduled another Maine Plein Air Painting Retreat for August 2026!
August 3-7, 2026 / Lubec, Maine, & Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Canada
Join me for a week of painting in Downeast Maine and the Canadian Maritimes! Lubec, Maine–the “easternmost point in the US”–is a scenic historic fishing village with rustic fish buildings, lobster boats and lighthouses. Nearby Campobello Island, just over the International Bridge, offers a bounty of ocean scenery such as bold rocky cliffs and cobblestone beaches, all in the Roosevelt-Campobello International Park and the Herring Cove Provincial Park. Cost is $300 USD for four and a half days, Monday-Friday. (Retreat ends Friday at lunch.) A passport is required, as this will allow you to cross the border for painting and also visiting my studio on Campobello Island.
This is a painting retreat, NOT a workshop. Participants need to be comfortable outdoors painting on their own. Although I will offer demonstrations and help, I won’t be giving any formal instructions. I will also be hosting daily critique sessions, art talk and more! Plus—since I’ve been painting here for over 20 years, I’ll take you to the best spots!
You will need a car, since we will be driving to spots, and I can’t guarantee carpooling. There’s plenty of lodging available both in Lubec and on Campobello, but things fill up fast, as August is a very, very popular month. Visit www.visitlubecmaine.com and www.visitcampobello.com for suggestions.
Payment Details
Contact me to make sure there is space, and then you can make payment either via check or Zelle. (Payment details sent on inquiry.)
Cost of the retreat is USD $300 (Unless otherwise noted)
Full payment of $300 USD required at signup. Payment is non-refundable unless your reserved place can be filled by another participant.
Payment may be made by check or Zelle.
Before you sign up, please note again that a passport is required. This will allow you to visit my Campobello Island studio and to paint on the island.
