8th Annual OPEN AIR ART for OPEN SPACE SHOW

“Churches of Redlands” is the theme for our Plein Air Show-in-a-show, opening Monday afternoon, June 4 at the RAA Gallery.  Open Air or Plein Air, is a style of painting where the artist does the majority of his/her painting in the outdoors.  Our artists have been given a list of the churches for this competition and for the last two months have been setting up their easles outside the churches to paint.

University of Redlands art professor, Penny McElroy, will judge the art for cash prizes.  The reception and awards ceremony will be held on Friday, June 15 from 5-7pm.

Come see how the artist has endured the rigors of painting in the elements.
