Plein Aire Painters a Retreat is Planned in a Unique, Virgin Territory Brajcino Macedonia

September 19 to 28, 2008

Macedonia is an ancient land rich in heritage and tradition. It was the home to Alexander the Great and is at a crossroads to southeastern Europe. The culture is a mix between Orthodox Christianity and Muslim Europe peacefully co-existing together in one of former Yugoslavia's little known gems. Macedonia is developing fast and is on the verge of transformation into a modern 21st century state. Plein Aire Painters offer a unique opportunity for artists to study and explore in one of Europe's few remaining unspoiled rural villages Brajcino situated on the edge of the Pellister National Park.
