June 20,2008 - June 22,2008
Panting en plein air (in the open air) is a delightful art form. Plein air paintings are valuable works in demand by a wide range of collectors. The Rehoboth Beach Paint Out will begin on June 20, when the artists arrive and begin to set up their easels outdoors, all over downtown Rehoboth. The artists may choose any spot within the downtown corporate limits of Rehoboth Beach. Painting will take place throughout the weekend and there will be plenty of opportunities for tourists and locals to observe the artists at work.
Approximately 30 artists will be invited into the show. These artists will participate and complete for prize money plus the opportunity to show their work in an exhibit at the elegant Bellmoor Inn on June 22. Be on the lookout for plein air artists on The Boardwalk, at Silver Lake and all around the downtown area.
