The annual Northport Arts Association Plein Air Weekend takes place this Saturday & Sunday (July 27 & 28) with a reception & “wet paint” sale Sunday from 6-8 PM. “Plein air” is French for “outdoors” and all weekend you can watch talented artists painting in and around Northport.

To help you get ready & to go deeper into the plein air craze that is sweeping the local art world, we’ll be talking later today with Association President Christine Verdon & noted Michigan pastel artist W Truman Hosner about this weekend’s event in Northport, Truman’s presentation about plein air from 2-4 PM TOMORROW as part of the Leelanau Summinars series in the Munnecke Room of the Leland Library, and plein air in general.
