Today's the day! Head over to Red Bank for the first "Paint Red Bank" plein air painting competition and exhibition. Stroll around picturesque Red Bank to watch artists painting outdoors from 10am to 3pm, then meet the artists and view the completed works at ArtSpace, Monmouth Arts' gallery on Monmouth Street. Enjoy light refreshments and the presentation of awards from 4:30-6:30. "Paint Red Bank" is organized by the Art Alliance of Monmouth County in partnership with Monmouth Arts and Red Bank RiverCenter, we hope this is the first of many events to come! @officialartallianceofmonmouth @redbank_nj #artawards #pleinairpainting #artexhibition #artexhibit #redbank #redbanknj (fb)
