Peteetneet Museum has been part the Payson community for many years. Our daughter even had her wedding reception there. It is a place filled with history, gatherings, art, music, and community memories.
In 2021, I had the opportunity to serve the arts community there as a volunteer Art Director and President of the Arts Council, helping organize exhibits and events for local artists. After 3½ years, I stepped down from that role to focus more on my own artwork and family life, but I stayed on to help coordinate the Payson Plein Air Paint Out & Exhibition.
This will be my third year organizing the event, and I’m excited to see artists painting throughout Payson and the surrounding areas again this June.
The Payson Plein Air Paint Out will take place June 8–13, 2026, with the reception and awards ceremony on June 13 at Peteetneet Museum. The exhibition will remain on display through August 6.
Please come paint beautiful Payson and celebrate with us at the award ceremony on June 13 starting at 6:30 PM.
