Elora Plein Air Festival

The Elora Plein Air Festival brings artists and visitors together each spring for a celebration of outdoor painting in Elora, Fergus, and the surrounding Grand River countryside. Artists set up their easels under open skies to capture heritage buildings, historic villages, river views, dramatic gorges, rural landscapes, and the natural beauty of the region.

The festival welcomes the public to watch artists at work, take part in community events, and enjoy the final juried show and sale at the Elora Centre for the Arts. The 2026 festival runs May 13 to 17.
