ART Week Children Paint Plein Air

Come on down to the Marquette Maritime Museum for the annual Plein Air youth event, co-sponsored by the Maritime Museum and Liberty Children’s Art Project! Participants will be given a short history of the Plein Air tradition, a demonstration, a single or collaborative canvas and a place to paint the scenery on the picturesque Lighthouse grounds as well as supports, paints, and brushes. Participants should be between the ages of 8-18 unless accompanied by an adult. The completed canvas will be displayed in the old Coast Guard building on the Harbor Lighthouse property throughout Art Week.

This event is free to participate, though due to space constraints, please pre-register by calling the Marquette Maritime Museum at (906) 226-2006.
