Sierra Foothills en Plein Air!

We're excited to announce plans for a plein air art event that will bring together local and nationally known artists to paint the foothill lands under SFC's protection. The artwork produced from the open air painting sessions will culminate in two invitational exhibitions in 2010 with partial proceeds benefiting SFC.

We hope to cultivate an increased awareness of the Sierra Foothills' beauty and value through the work of plein air artists. Join us! Are you a painter? A collector? Would you like to observe artists at work? Would you like to help?
