Plein Air Sandwich​ - Friday, July 12, 2019

Picture'Master of the Sea' by Betsy Payne Cook
Artists from across the Cape and beyond will be setting up easels along the streets and byways of Sandwich to paint or draw their favorite scene and to share the experience with the public. 'Plein Air Sandwich', a third annual event sponsored by Sandwich Arts Alliance, takes place on Friday, July 12th from 8 am to 1 pm, where artists will be painting or sketching 'en plein air' (outside) at a location in town of their own choosing. ​To help the public find and identify the artists, they’ll be wearing special orange hats.
​
“Painting outdoors is an exhilarating experience, whether you are a novice or an experienced painter”, says Betsy Payne Cook, event painter. 

 “The quality of the work should be very high based on the artists waiting to sign up”, explains event manager Denise Chasse, who added, “This is a perfect event for the Sandwich Arts Alliance to undertake because it brings art into the community and showcases the talent locally.”

That evening from 5-7 pm, a reception and silent auction will be held at The Sagamore Inn Restaurant, 1131 Sagamore Rd, Sagamore, where the public is invited to view the finished artwork, meet the artists, and bid on their favorite pieces. The entire day is meant to be casual and fun.
