This year, fifty fine artists from the Mid-Atlantic area and beyond will gather the second week of September to paint en plein air on Chincoteague and Assateague Islands. On Saturday evening (September 11) at 6 PM, their art work will be displayed for sale at a show that is free to the public. Free canapés will be served and there will be a cash bar. Be sure to come early as pieces sell quickly! A portion of the sales goes to help the CCA promote the arts on the island.

ALSO...  A Quick Draw Contest will be held on Thursday, September 9 - Open to all Artists - Registration fee is $5.
Artists will be painting in and around Robert Reed Park from 1-3 pm. It's a great opportunity to watch how different artists interpret the same scene.  Paintings will be judged at 3 pm and after prizes are awarded, the pieces will be available for sale until 4 pm. Artists not registered for the Plein Air event are welcome to participate - just arrive at the park at 12:30 pm.
