Alex Alberda, curatorial intern, will facilitate a 15-minute dialogue on Olive Rush’s Food Bearers (Food Bearers—Shalako Dance), 1923.  Hello Artists,
I’m sending you information about an exciting Plein Aire event in Historic, Seward, Nebraska on October 10 & 11. The architecture in that beautiful city is full of lines and shapes that are just begging to become works of art and the court house on the city square is spectacular! I am thrilled that the city of Seward and the Red Path Gallery are inviting artists to visit and share in two artistic days in this environment. Coffee, rolls and fruit will be served both mornings. Also included in the adventure are a pasta buffet on Saturday night and a soup lunch on Sunday. There will be an optional “Wet Paint” sale on Sunday afternoon where you are able to show and sell your work to art patrons. Of course, you are welcome to invite your own patrons to this experience as well. I invite you to join other artists in this artistic adventure. Weather is not a concern as the city layout also provides covered outdoor areas for the artists as well as a Civic Center with large window areas if the weather does not cooperate. Please share this information with artist friends and art groups that you know. You may contact Jeanne K. Hain Wiemer at The Red Path Gallery at 402-540-6929 with any questions or for more information. The Link to PURCHASE ENTRY FEE ONLINE IS: http://mkt.com/red-path-gallery/historic-seward-plein-aire
