Calling all painters!  The City of Moscow and the Moscow Arts Commission invite you to participate in the fourth annual Palouse Plein Air 2013.



What is Plien Air?
French for "in the open air" used to describe the act of painting outdoors. Plein air competitions are all about painting outdoors in a specific area or region and then having those paintings exhibited in an art gallery.

The competition is open to artists 18 years or older. All painting mediums are welcome!

On September 20, 2013 from 8:00 a.m. to noon, participants are to deliver a maximum of 3 finished entries framed and ready to hang to the Third Street Gallery. The Gallery is located in Moscow City Hall (206 E. Third). The judging will take place from noon to 4:30 p.m.



The Palouse Plein Air 2013 Juror is Roger Rowley, University of Idaho Art & Design Professor and Director of the Prichard Art Gallery.
