International Artcamp is a wonderful way to spend a week of summer vacations, painting outdoors, guided by our teachers, in the company of friends and professional artists. See more details below.
Here is a 1-minute video to give you an idea:
Just like in 2026, the ARTCAMPs 2024 and 2025 took place in the South of France, in the town of Mèze, at the shore of the Thau Lake, across from the city of Sète, not far from Montpellier.
A week of outdoors painting and sketching in an authentic town of Mèze, full of the Southern France coulours, Mediterranean nature and local entertainment and cuisine.
We have several teachers, so this program is suitable for all levels and all ages (children from 8 years old are welcome).
There are also professional artists or experienced amateurs from different countries who join this program without taking the courses
The price of the guided painting course is 540€ for 5 days (minimum 4 hours of painting per day, morning and afternoon sessions) including the final show and basic art supplies. You can just join us on place, nothing to carry on.
There’s also the early bird option with a 10% discount.
The fee for artists who don’t need instructions but wish to participate in the program and in the exhibition is 85€.
it is the responsabilité of the participants to dfind their own accomodation in Mèze or nearby in they are travelinng by car .
It is very easy to join Mèze from Paris by train TGV from Gare de Lyon with only 3 hours trip and 3 hours by train and a connection on a small ferry
