Our Story

Cape Ann Plein Air (CAPA) was founded in 2015 to honor Cape Ann as the birthplace of American Plein Air Painting. This vibrant organization hosts a week-long plein air painting festival in Cape Ann, Massachusetts, attracting top-tier artists who create stunning works inspired by the region's natural beauty. CAPA collaborates with Cape Ann Art Haven to provide inclusive art education and community-building opportunities for all ages, particularly focusing on low-income youth.

Our Impact

Since its inception, Cape Ann Plein Air has awarded over $100,000 in prizes to artists, significantly boosting the local economy by connecting high-quality paintings with collectors. The partnership with Cape Ann Art Haven ensures that art education is accessible to children and teens, fostering creativity and community engagement.
