Art in the Garden - Free! July 17, 2010

FREE!!! 21 ARTISTS TO PAINT IN THE GARDEN ~ COME WATCH ART HAPPEN!

Our Art in the Garden Event, July 16th and 17th, is a highlight of our year long celebration of Gamble Garden's 25th Anniversary. Not only will our garden be bursting with color at the height of its summer bloom - so will the canvases of the artists who will be painting there! Come watch as they move color from their pallets to their paintings, depicting scenes of the Gamble Estate.

Twenty one artists have been selected to participate in this event. Each will exhibit three framed paintings for sale - at least one of which will depict Gamble Garden; the others may be landscapes, still lifes, or other nature related subjects.

Saturday, July 17th from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm is when the artists will be painting "en Plein Air", and the public is invited free of charge. Come watch art happen as you stroll along our garden paths, enjoy a delicious crepe or ice cream treat from our vendors, and visit with friends. The newly created paintings, as well as those on exhibit, will continue to be for sale until 5:00 pm. Thirty percent of the sale price of each painting is a donation by the artist to Gamble Garden. This promises to be a delightful, as well as educational, outing for people of all ages.
