On Saturday, February 24, we are proud to present “Paint Wickenburg: Plein Air”, a site-specific and in-person painting event with the Wickenburg Art Club (WAC). If you are an artist interested in participating, please contact Corey Garman at vicepresident@wickenburgartclub.org. The registration fee is $25. Artists’ registration begins at 8 a.m. Painting starts at 9 a.m. and goes until 3 p.m. Artwork available for purchase from 3-5 p.m. in the Museum’s
Learning Center.
The designated area to paint in downtown Wickenburg will be from the Hassayampa bridge to Basha’s supermarket and from Basha’s to the train station on Frontier Street. This event is rain or shine; painting on-site, and Wickenburg has to be the subject. It’s first-come, first-served for easel locations.
