Artists in the Wild!

When

April 25, 2026

9:00 am - 11:00 am

Event Type

Public Events

Join us Saturday, April 25th from 9–11am for a morning of artistic inspiration at the Prairie Creek Marsh & Wildscape.

Artists in the Wild is an open invitation to bring your medium and sketch, paint, photograph, or simply observe the landscape.

No experience needed—this is about curiosity, not perfection. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just want to play with color, light, and texture, you’re welcome.

We’ll share a few favorite spots to settle in. Late April is near peak bloom, and the marsh is alive with color and activity.

This is a casual, come-as-you-are gathering. Bring a chair or blanket if you’d like, and wander as inspiration strikes.

Neither VH nor AT are offered for this event.

🌿🌼🐞🦋

Park behind the Hilton Garden Inn 1001 Pres. George Bush Pkwy. Richardson.

Feel free to forward this invite to your artist pals too☺️

If you can’t make it, we hope you come visit sometime.

Happy Spring!
