The Camden Public Library and Page Gallery are collaborating to present Camden on Canvas, a Plein-air fundraiser to be held in Camden and surrounding communities from July 21 to July 23, 2023.
In the library’s third annual event, landscape artists will paint en Plein-air at multiple local sites from Friday morning, July 21, to noon on Sunday, July 23. The weekend culminates with a reception and live auction of one painting from each artist on Sunday, July 23. Artists receive 50% of the sale price and the library receives the remaining 50% as a donation.
Artists are now invited to apply for this event. Email submissions to artists@librarycamden.org by January 20, 2023, following these guidelines:
- Submit 3 digital photos of recent Plein-air paintings.
- Submit images in jpeg format at 72 dpi with the longest dimension being 2000 pixels.
- Please include each painting’s dimensions.
- Please include your website, gallery link, or Instagram for further context.
Jurors will select the 2023 artist list by February 1, 2023.
