Join OC Parks at George Key Ranch Historic Park for Create in the Park! Professional artist, Dawn Buckingham, will guide you through the basics of plein air painting and provide tips on selecting and packing art supplies. The program includes a demonstration of sketching plans for your painting as well as creating your own sketch in pencil, ink, marker or paint. A guided tour about the history of George Key Ranch will also be included.

This program is designed for ages 12 and older. Materials are not provided, only art instruction. A list of recommended materials will be made available to all registered participants in advance of the program. Sun protection, water and snacks are recommended.

The program is free with free parking, but reservations are required due to limited parking on-site. Learn more and register here.
