Press Release: 1st Annual Plein Air Art & Auction On July 30th, 2009 at 11:00 A.M., the Shutterbug Gallery and Huntsville Festival of the Arts are collaborating on a fun, fringe event of the festival that will ultimately benefit students who are pursing a fine art education. Renowned local artists such as, Wendy Moses, Catherine O’Mara, Sara Hall and Gerry Lantaigne, as well as area dignitaries, such as councilors Fran Coleman and Mary Jane Fletcher, will create their masterpieces right in the public eye, utilizing various locations along Main Street and in the parks of beautiful downtown Huntsville. Huntsville Mayor Claude Doughty has also agreed to put brush to canvas so if you’ve ever wanted an opportunity to critique an elected official, this is your chance! The artists only have four short hours to complete their work, so they’ll need lots of encouragement from on-lookers. Artists will be provided with art supplies and an identifying sign board that will help patrons of the arts to identify the artist and their work for the upcoming auction. Once the artists are finished, the original works will be put up for display on the Town Hall steps. At approximately 3:00pm, renowned local actor James Carroll, will conduct a lively and entertaining art auction, offering the public at large a chance to bid, with the proceeds benefiting a student fine arts bursary. This is a wonderful opportunity to watch the creation of a masterpiece, own that original painting and to support the Huntsville Festival of the Arts, and emerging young artists.
