Rural Roots Mural 2025

Over 100 community painters of all ages came together to add color to our mural on Saturday at the Rural Roots Fair, hosted by the Beaumont and District Agricultural Society. Fifteen enthusiastic volunteers worked tirelessly throughout the day, ensuring that everyone had the opportunity to paint a section of the mural. Even the youngest children participated by creating their own ‘mini-murals.’

The mural will be completed in the coming weeks by the AAB mural workshop team, who have enjoyed learning about the process of designing and painting a mural.

AAB is grateful for the ongoing partnership with BADAS and their willingness to embrace our creative ideas.

We would also like to thank the City of Beaumont for their financial support through an Arts Grant.

Additionally, our gratitude goes to Cloverdale Paint in Nisku for sponsoring the project by offering invaluable advice and providing quality paint and supplies at a discounted rate.

Summer of 2025 Plein Air Sessions

This summer, several artists have been gathering for plein air sessions. But what does “plein air” mean? The French term “plein air” translates to “out of doors” and refers to the practice of completing entire paintings outdoors. The artists have been meeting at various locations to work on their individual studies.
