Paint Bangor Day invites 35 artists to paint the historic Bangor district en plein air. Registration is from 6 to 11 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 7 at the Bangor Public Library. Maps of popular areas will be provided and all art is due back to the Library by 3 p.m. The wet paintings will be juried live and select pieces will be available for live auction that evening while the remaining pieces will be on display and available via silent auction. A reception precedes the auctions that evening, beginning at 6 p.m.
Registration is encouraged, as only the first 35 artists to sign up will be able to participate. For more information or to register for Paint Bangor Day, visit www.bangorpubliclibrary.org/Events/paintbangor.html.
Proceeds from the silent and live auctions will be donated to the Bangor Public Library's 'Yes for the Library' campaign to renovate and revitalize the interior of the Library. For more information on the campaign, visit www.yesforthelibrary.com.
