Plein Air at Adkins Arboretum

 Watercolor/Sketching Plein Air Event at Adkins Arboretum

Date:  Wednesday, October 15, 10:00 am - 2:00 pm; no rain date

Location:    12610 Eveland Road, Ridgely MD (approximately 30 minutes from the Bay Bridge)
Fee: Free; donations welcomed

Parking:  Follow parking signs then walk to Visitor Center. Bringing supplies in from the car can be a burden so a wagon/rolling cart would be useful.  A volunteer-driven golf cart may be reserved no later than October 3 to assist those who have issues walking. Contact Carol Kramer, 703 725-6133 to make reservations.

Facilities: The visitor center has restroom facilities, access to water, and a gift shop.  They also provide audio tours for you to borrow and learn more about the area. 

Adkins Arboretum has over 400 acres of native plants and forest representing the Mid-Atlantic coastal plain. We may get lucky and hit peak fall foliage. Once you arrive at the Visitor Center, pick up a trail map. Review and seek out the different displays of wetlands, meadows and forests to explore for your painting. Most are within 1/2 to 1 mile of the visitor center. Hope to see you there! See images of the arboretum:  Adkins Photo Gallery - Google Photos
