open-air photography workshop
'Open-air' is how I've translated such event; I tend to steer clear of 'plein-air' as I understand it a term applied to a specific painting style

Let me rephrase that. It's not so much that I understand it as that, as that it can be taken to mean that; so I simply try to avoid misunderstandings. However, for a text such as e.g. a critical work, where the target reader may well be infomed in the subject, then I'd use 'plein air'.

Re. your note: I'd say that possibly 'plein air' isn't such a widely used term in this context cf.. for example:

Personally, for what it's worth, in your context, I'd use 'open air'

Note from asker:
well... it's a short note on an exibition... in Polish "plener" is a term well known to wider audience.. (I'm not sure how it is in English)... I wouldn't call it a critical work |
