Contra Costa Plein Air Paint-Out

Lafayette Reservoir
3849 Mt. Diablo Blvd., Lafayette CA 94549
Let's go back to the beautiful Lafayette Reservoir! This time we'll be painting along the walkway at the top of the dam instead of at the Visitor Center where we've met in the past. Parking is easier at this location and there are spectacular views. The tower is especially dramatic from this side because it catches the morning sun.
Enter the park at the main entrance at 3849 Mt. Diablo Blvd. and drive up to the main parking lot. Look for the parking permit machines in the middle of the lot, purchase a day use permit for $7 (cash or card), and be sure to display your permit on your dash. (I hear that compliance is strictly enforced.) Park in that main lot, then fan out to find your spot. Most of us will probably set up along the concrete walkway at the top of the dam. I'm attaching a map to help you find us.
There are restrooms at the west end of the parking lot. Day use fee is $7, restrooms are open, rain cancels. I hope to see you there!
