2010 ANNUAL BLACK HILLS PLEIN AIR EVENT: SPEARFISH CANYON

September 16-19

Greetings artists,

As summer is winding down we want to get the word out about the paint out. This year it will be held in Spearfish Canyon with our Saturday night dinner gathering to be held at the Latchstring Inn. As well as the Wet Sale.

We may be limited to how many people we can seat and have hot food so we will have an absolute deadline for dinner reservations that can't be increased after the deadline. DEADLINE WILL BE FRIDAY SEPT. 10, 2010. EMAIL NAMES WITH A HEAD COUNT.

The dates again are; Thursday Sept. 16th through Sunday Sept. 19th. An optional meet and greet in the Great Room of the Latchstring from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm will be held so everyone can check in and find places and partners to paint with.

Paint all day Friday and Saturday with dinner being served at 6:00 pm in the Homestake Room. You may order off the menu with each paying for their own meal and beverage. The restaurant serves beer and wine only however there is a full service bar over at the Lodge. If you would like to bring your own bottle of wine there will be a $16.00 cork fee at the table.

The Wet Sale will be held in the Glendoris Room from 1:00 to 4:00pm. on Sunday. Our standard 70/30 split will be taken at the sale of any artwork that day. We will collect and pay the sales tax through Blue Dog. Artists will be issued their commission check within one week of event.

Please feel free to pass this on to friends who may be interested. We will be advertising this in the local papers and hope to have the local TV channels at the event.

An added treat this year are several artists from Britain are coming to paint the Black Hills. We are so excited that word of our little event has crossed the pond and they are coming to paint the wild west.

Sincerely,

Jan & John Humphrey
