FCPAP is a group of enthusiastic and dedicated plein air painters based on the First Coast (Northeast Florida/Southeast Georgia). “Plein air is defined as a style of painting produced out of doors in natural light.”
The purpose of this group is to maintain a strong and active membership, gain sponsorship and exhibition opportunities, build mutually beneficial relationships with other art and plein air groups, and foster plein air painting on the First Coast.
