Artist Award Sponsorship Program

In a few short years, the Olmsted Plein Air Invitational has established itself as one of the top plein air competitions in the country. The Atlanta community can be very proud to host a top-tier event. We strive to lead the way by offering the top purse in the United States.

What is that going to take? A combination of corporate sponsors, individual Friends, painting sales, and award sponsors.

As an award sponsor, you will have the honor of presenting to the winning artist at the Artist Awards and Collector’s Soiree (the Olmsted-Best of Show Award is sponsored by and presented by John Smith of XYZ Inc.). In addition, you will receive:

• Tickets to the en Plein Air PopUp Prosecco In the Park & Petite Gallery Stroll
