Plein Air Painting Event
Pack your art bag. Artists at all levels are invited to join the Plein Air Painting Event which will be held Wednesday, May 13, 2015 at Durward's Glen Retreat and Conference Center from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM. Participants should meet on the front step of the chapel porch. Pot luck picnic afterwards. Plein air, a French word, literally translates as 'open air', and is defined as painting or drawing done outside, in the open air. And with today's portable painting equipment, it's never been easier to join in this creative challenge. Durward's Glen is a great location to try your skill with this painting style. The grounds are located within the Baraboo bluffs and include over 37 acres of hiking trails, the Glen, Prentice Creek, the pond, multiple Catholic shrines and grottoes, and multiple historic structures, such as, the Hermitage, the Artist Cottage, the Chapel, and the Log Lodge. Some of these structures are on the National Historic Landmark Register. To learn more about Durward's Glen, visit their website at www.durwardsglen.org. Their grounds are open to the public from dawn until dusk. Tours of their historic Log Lodge can be arranged by calling 608-356-8113.
