Downtown Brampton invites artists from across Ontario for the one-day-only en plein air (outdoor) painting event, presented by the Inzola Art Fund at PAMA.

The event is on Saturday, Aug. 27 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at GALLERY 35, 35 Queen St., Brampton. But artists can register now until Aug. 12 for $40 or at the event for $50. Registrations will only be taken at the event if supplies remain.

Each artist will get either a 16 x 20 canvas or watercolour paper.

Artists will paint around downtown Brampton from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. and judging will be from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

The top three prizes are $800 for first, $500 for second, and $200 for third. Nine winning pieces get displayed at Gallery 35 from Sept. 1 to 15 in a combined exhibition.
