SFC Plein Air 2010

This year we have a summer event you won't want to miss:
Three opportunities to see and purchase art produced
 "en plein air" on lands conserved by SFC.

For the past year artists have painted in the open on the foothill lands. In August their stunning artwork comes together in
two gala sales and exhibitions;

The Embarcadero Exhibition in San Francisco August 7th
& The Great Valley Exhibition in Fresno August 29th.
The collection will be on public display at
The Leon S. Peters, Ellipse Gallery
at California State University Fresno
 between the two exhibitions, including a lecture
 August 13th.

Visit www.sierrafoothill.org/pleinair for tickets,
details and a preview of the artwork!

The grasslands, foothills, and forests between Yosemite and Kings Canyon National Parks provide land for farms and ranches, a home for native plants  and wildlife, and a source of clean water.  The Sierra Foothill Conservancy honors our natural and cultural heritage by protecting these resources and ensuring that present and future generations will continue to experience and enjoy the land in this region.
