Gallery 302 - Plein Air Painting

This program brings together Gallery 302 artists who enjoy painting outside, en plein air. Taking their cue from the French Impressionists, plein air painters work on location, braving wind, bugs, weather, and constantly shifting conditions to try to capture the light and quality of a specific time and locale.

The gallery mounts a small exhibit showcasing the work produced by the plein air painters. Come join us if you’d like to experience the challenges and rewards of working in the field! Cathy Grigsby oversees this program.

Plein Air Art Making and Exploration 

This series is meant for seasoned artists as well as beginners and even art lovers who just want to come and see what we are doing. It is free and open to all BAG members. These are not classes, there will be no teacher, just a chance to explore the art making process with other BAG members. We would like for you to sign up at the gallery if you are planning to come to any of the art making events or let someone on the committee know so that we can keep an eye out for you.

We usually meet at the place we are painting. You can stay as long as you want. In the event of bad weather, we will cancel the event or meet on Mary Lou Moulton’s porch to paint. For more information call Cathy Grigsby - 647-5717 or Mary Lou Moulton 647-3580.
