PAINT OUT IN GIG HARBOR
The Harbor History Museum in Gig Harbor welcomes plein air painters to “Paint the Shenandoah” at the Maritime Paint Out, in conjunction with the Gig Harbor Maritime Art Show.  Come and join us Saturday, Aug 11, 2012 anytime from 8am-5pm at 4121 Harborview Drive.  What could be better than spending the day on the water in this sweet little harbor town, painting, and meeting old friends and new!  Bring your lunch or enjoy one of the local restaurants nearby.  Coffee and tea will be provided.  Meet behind the museum by the Shenandoah, the 65-foot purse seiner, donated to the Museum in 2000.  To learn more about the Shenandoah Project, go to: www.harborhistorymuseum.org/programs/shenandoah-project/.   At 5pm, you have the option to bring  your painting framed or unframed to the museum to be considered for the "Museum's Choice" by Nate Slater.  If chosen, your piece will be displayed in the museum for the year and you may elect to donate it to the museum's permanent collection.  
   
I'm looking forward to seeing you.  Think Blue Skies ~ Pat Meras   patmeras@wavecable.com  253-857-5801
