Artist Britt Greenland, selected as this year’s Designated Plein Air Artist, will paint on August 28 in Sandy Cove Park in honor of this year’s Railroad Days.
Afterward, you can view her two paintings on the City of Snoqualmie Facebook page from August 29-31 or go online to ArtGalleryofSnoValley.com to vote for your favorite.
The painting with the most votes will be honored as the Plein Air Paint Out Poster for 2022 and displayed in the Falls Compounding Pharmacy, located at 8112 Railroad Ave. SE, the first week of September.
This is the thirteenth year of the Plein Air Paint Out (meaning to paint outdoors). The event is hosted by the Snoqualmie Arts Commission, which has a mission of nurturing a vibrant arts scene in Snoqualmie, and in collaboration with the Art Gallery of SnoValley.
