Painting Holidays in Portugal

Art in the Algarve is a painting holiday provider. We specialise in art holidays that provide a unique surrounding for artists from every background to learn new skills or develop existing skills. If you love art and are looking to combine your passion with an art and a painting holiday in the sun, then Art In The Algarve is a perfect choice.

Our custom built Art School is set in the beautiful rustic town of Olhão in the Algarve. With vaulted ceilings, Roman brick work, three courtyards and an olive tree (believed to be over 150 years old), the school has been restored offering an exceptional space for artistic creativity.

The romantic beautifully restored school filters light through the large windows and courtyards. It is exceptionally charming, has an abundance of old features and is a fantastic place to gather inspiration.

Art courses for all abilities

If you love art and are looking to combine your passion with a holiday in the sun, then Art In The Algarve is a perfect choice. We have excellent art teachers waiting to share their knowledge with you.

We run art courses covering a variety of mediums from watercolours, oils, still life and general art on a weekly basis. If you are just looking to come away and paint but not after the tuition then we also offer the studio and the accommodation for artists.
