Dog Days of Summer: Special Paint Night
Paint Your Pet *Personalized Pre-Sketch*
Tuesday, August 29
6pm-9pm

Paint a portrait of your furry friend and support our pets at the same time!

Part of the proceeds from every ticket purchased will be donated to the Gloucester Mathews Humane Society.

The instructor will hand sketch your pet onto a canvas, and then you’ll do the painting! You will receive instruction in mixing colors and applying paint. All painting materials will be provided, including a canvas, brushes, and acrylic paint.

You will need to provide a photo of the pet that you plan to paint. Please email this picture within 24 hours of making your reservation. This allows adequate time for the instructor to trace the outline of your pet onto a canvas. Please have the picture feature just the pet you wish to paint. This will be used as your starting point so please make sure the picture of your pet is clear and at the angle that you want for the finished painting of your favorite animal to be. The instructor will respond to your email to confirm that they received the photo and that it will translate well into a painting. Email [email protected] and include your full name so we can match it with your registration. Thank you!

Cost is $55 per student.

Registration deadline is Saturday, August 26 by 5pm.

During the month of June, artwork created during t During the month of June, artwork created during the 2023 Gloucester Arts Festival will be on display at Arts on Main. There will be NO First Friday in the month of June, instead we encourage everyone to attend Gloucester Arts Festival event, Brews, Brine, & Wine at Historic Timberneck Farm at Machicomoco State Park.

For information about Brews, Brine & Wine visit https://www.gloucesterartsfestival.com/brews-brine-wine-2023

“Come enjoy oysters and beer while visiting the Plein Air artists who will be interpreting the beautiful surroundings on their canvases, creating small works that will be available for sale at the event. Art, food, and beautiful scenery will make for a lovely evening for the whole family. Co-hosted by the Fairfield Foundation, Brews & Brine will be held at Machicomoco State Park this year.

Timberneck Farm at Machicomoco State Park sits on land that was a part of the Powhatan empire, just downriver from Werowocomoco, home of the paramount chief Powhatan and his daughter Pocahontas. The new state park serves as a “gateway” to the Tsenacomoco region – land that Virginia’s Algonquin tribes occupied for hundreds of years before European settlement at Jamestown Island.”
