Welcome to Layover

Let’s transform layovers from mundane, unavoidable, interruptions into vibrant, enriching experiences that foster creativity, connection, and professional growth for live painters.

Layover Events is a series of in-person, immersive events for live painters to pause, connect, create, and get inspired with other artists, industry leaders, and innovators. These 2-3 day workshops are packed with educational panels, dinners, and valuable connections for artists worldwide.

LAYOVER: Maine is here! Join us at Tops’l Farm in Waldoboro, Maine, from August 10th–13th, 2026. Taking place in coastal Maine, we'll gather for an elevated outdoor retreat. Think: summer art camp but with glamping and farm-to-table food. This event will be skills-focused, with multiple workshops each day centered around plein air painting. Limited tickets drop this fall—don’t miss it!

When they were talking about how estimates are set up, communication times, client gifts, packaging, etc., I realized these are things I have already been doing within my business & it feels great to hear that I'm on the right track! Thank you for everything & I can't wait until the next one!”
