We are excited to host En Plein Air Contest & Auction as part of Red River Arts Fest 2026!

Artists will have chances to win cash prizes AND sell their artwork in a live auction or in our gallery.

The community will have a chance to watch the artists in action – on Friday night (May 1) at Neighbors Place Winery and on Saturday (May 2) in locations in and around Bonham.

All are invited to the opening reception on Saturday, May 2, starting at 5:00 pm at the Creative Arts Center. The awards ceremony will start at 5:30 pm, immediately followed by the live art auction. Artwork not sold in the live auction will be on display in the gallery and available for purchase during the month of May.

Registration for Artists is now open. Look for the REGISTER (or "Get Tickets") button below or stop by the center during normal business hours to sign up in person. SCAMMER ALERT – if any individual says you can contact them to register, they are a scammer.

energy that once made this event so special. We’re creating a gathering place for local
artists, collectors, and art enthusiasts to celebrate creativity and reconnect with what
made Paris such a vibrant cultural destination.

Come stroll through over 60 fine art vendors, enjoy live music, food, children’s art display and activities, a juried art show, live art battle and so much more!

Event will be split between Bywaters Park, the Paris Public Library and the Paris Farmers Market.
