River Towns Plein Air 2022

Artists will paint en plein air over a ten-day period on both sides of the Susquehanna River.  En plein air is French for painting outdoors, in the “open air.”  Watch artists at work (at a safe distance), then visit the resulting art exhibit at Studio 264, Marietta Community House, 264 W Market St, Marietta PA.  Last year artists created over 170 paintings, many purchased by local collectors.
