Capitola Plein Air 2017

Capitola Plein Air returns for a third annual event!

Watch artists paint all around Capitola on Saturday, November 4th 10am-2pm. Then on Sunday, November 5th, from 11-4, at New Brighton Middle School Performing Arts Center (250 Washburn Ave.), more than 100 framed paintings will be on display for the competition, exhibition and sale.

The public is invited to vote for the People’s Choice Award and enjoy the exhibition, live music by Marc Schwartz & Dale Mills, and hands-on art making with Linda Cover of Watershed Arts.

A portion of art sales will benefit art education.

Artist Laurie Kersey will judge the competition. Kersey’s work in oil includes plein air works of the California coast and countryside, traditional still lifes and florals, quiet figurative works, and imagery of horses at work and play.

This is a Capitola Art & Cultural Commission event, sponsored by: City of Capitola, Palace Art & Office, Gayle's Bakery, Shadowbrook Restaurant, Fairfield Inn, GoodTimes, Local Tape, and Times Publishing Group.
