Montana Painters Alliance Annual Exhibition
May 3 @ 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM
Free
Cassens Fine Art proudly presents the Montana Painters Alliance Annual Exhibition. The Montana Painters Alliance was formed about 20 years ago by artist Thomas English and a small group of fellow painters. Because most painting happens in solitude, the goal behind the Montana Painters Alliance was to create community around painting outdoors while providing an opportunity for artists to learn from one another and hone their plein air painting skills in new and unfamiliar locations. Hosting two paint outs a year, the Montana Painters Alliance organizes shows in museums and galleries across the state. This year, the group gathered in the Bitterroot Valley for one of their paint outs, and this year their annual exhibition will be hosted at Cassens Fine Art in Hamilton, Montana. The works of Rob Akey, Marcia Ballowe, Diana Brady, Nate Closson, Thomas English, Chuck Fulcher, Laurie Stevens, Jake Gaedtke, Diana Mysse, Terry Nybo, Steve Oiestad, Robert Spannring, David Swanson, Ron Ukrainetz, Shirle Wempner, and Ken Yarus will be on display, with official guest, Karl Oehrtman.
