This spring our second annual Paint the ’Ville, plein air (outdoor painting) artists have been hard at work painting scenes throughout Warrenville. Their pieces will be on display when we reopen the museum later this spring. As we anxiously await their wonderful creations, co-curator of this program and 2015-2016 Warrenville Artist-in-Residency Maggie Capettini will be joining us virtually for a plein air demo and presentation about the history of plein air painting. Join us on Thursday, April 22nd at 7:00pm for the presentation. You can register through our Facebook Page or on our Eventbrite site https://tinyurl.com/WHSPleinAir.

This program is made possible by a City of Warrenville Hotel Tax Grant. You can also see more about Maggie and her work on her website www.maggiecapettini.com and learn more about Paint the ‘Ville on our website. The third edition of this program will launch in the fall, so if you know of an interested artist, please contact us at info@warrenvillehistoricl.org or watch for an announcement on our website later this summer.
