FALMOUTH — In place of Maine Audubon’s annual “Nature of Craft” show, the organization invites plein air painters to be inspired at the aububon’s sanctuaries and create art outdoors to engage visitors in the artistic process.
Juried artists can paint at the eight Maine Audubon sanctuaries from Sept. 9 to 12, with an auction Sept. 24 and 25. Maine Audubon has a long and rich history of supporting and working with artists who draw on nature for creative inspiration, and the public is encouraged to visit the sanctuaries to observe the artists at work.
Maine Audubon invites artists to apply for “Brush with Nature.” For details and to apply, visit maineaudubon.org/brushwithnature. The application deadline is May 28.
Jurors, as of May 3, include Jane Bianco, curator, Farnsworth Art Museum; and Scott Kelley, artist.
Visit maineaudubon.org/visit for information about each sanctuary, including directions, descriptions of the habitat, flora, and fauna, and an aerial tour.
