Visiting Artist Talk and Plein Air Painting with Leslie Baum

Please join us for the following events!

Wednesday, September 24, 6 pm - AD Room 165 - Visiting Artist Talk with Leslie Baum

Thursday, September 25, at 2:00 pm - Meet at the Museum for Plein Air Painting - Parallel Play Experience with Leslie Baum

Murmurations features paintings by Leslie Baum, created in the studio from work made as part of her Plein Air Project. The Project offers a fresh spin on plein air painting – the act of painting outdoors from the landscape. All the work on display stems from her ongoing practice of hosting plein air painting dates, in which she invites others to paint alongside her in the open air. In the spirit of this project, we invite you to invite a friend to join you for a self-directed outdoor painting experience. Gather in front of the Museum on Thursday, September 25, at 2:00 pm, and we will head to an outdoor painting spot.

While the museum will have small clipboards and a few supplies available, you are encouraged to bring supplies to work with, a hard surface to work on, and a blanket or chair to sit on. We will start with an introduction, but instruction is not provided; this is simply an opportunity to paint outdoors with a partner and share that experience with many others doing the same.
