Darlene has some news for us, actually she is the "news gal" with her artsy column in the San Juan Star every month. Pay attention, there might be a quiz.
Painting San Juan Bautista: City of
History
The Monterey Bay Area Plein Air Painters Association is heading into San Juan
Bautista from August 28 to September 1st to “paint the town.”
The artists will be distributing themselves throughout this historical town,
pallets in hand and easels positioned, to create plein air paintings of various
local scenes. By September 1st these paintings will be
gathered and juried by local artist, Gayle Sleznick.
On September 2nd,
Labor Day, there will be a pre-view sale of these paintings at Café 15, 322
Third Street, where some of them will be on view until November 10. The
rest of the paintings will be posted at www.cafe15.com.
An opening reception to meet the
artists will be held on Friday, September 6 from 4 to 7 pm, during the monthly
First Friday Art Walk. This is a benefit to support the educational
objectives of the Monterey Bay Plein Air Painters Association, a non-profit
organization that works to foster the understanding and appreciation of plein
air painting and its place in the history and current culture of our
communities. Such events help support the professional development of local
plein air artists.
One can contact the Monterey Bay Plein Air Painters
Association at www.mbpapa.org.
Thank you, Darlene
