ART IN THE PARK - Marple Festival proloco
Sunday 19th September - Marple Memorial Park
Festival Painting Day sponsored by Derwent Pencils
Come and show your artistic talent, whatever your age, and enjoy a creative (and fun) day painting outdoors.
Sign in between 9-10am and return artwork by 4pm.
Entry price - per entry - £1 Adults and 50p Children.
Age groups: 0-11 years, 12-18 years and adults - 19 years plus.
Artists to bring their own canvas or paper, easel and equipment. Some painting and drawing materials will be available.
Sign in at the Art Tent located in Memorial Park then enjoy the day - go out into the locality and paint or draw something that takes your eye! Work must be unaided and produced on location and NOT at home. Return your work of art to the Art tent by 4pm the same day.
Finished artwork should be returned to be authenticated before framing and then framed for hanging. Paintings look even better when framed but no need to spend a lot of money.
GREAT FAMILY FUN!
There will be an exhibition of the artwork locally and a prize-giving (sponsored by Derwent Pencils) - details to be announced soon.
First prize paintings will be retained and displayed locally (not for sale). All other paintings can be returned on request. Other paintings may be retained for display by the Festival Committee with permission for use in publications and displays.
