 The Beloit Art Center Plein Air group starts this spring. The purpose of the group is to get together at a scheduled location, have fun, and paint what we see. We have no restrictions as to how anyone paints, and all who are interested are welcome. We have a "Ridiculous Paint Brush Award" that will go to the artist that displays the most interesting creativity each session. See our scheduled locations below, which will be open painting sessions with painters from other Plein air groups invited to join us. We collect no fees, and provide no materials. All are welcome to enter any Plein Air session as they choose. You will have the opportunity to show your work in the Bell Gallery at the Beloit Art Center. Any questions can be directed to John Hines, jhines6777@yahoo.com

To accomplish this, a contest will be held in which the public can submit their ideas to the board. The contest is open to all ages and will culminate in the top three entries being on display on May 1st at our First Friday gallery night. The winner of our logo contest will be announced that evening and awarded a $100.00 cash prize. The Beloit Art Center has provided a home for the arts in downtown Beloit since 1999. We look forward to our continued partnership with the community and regional artists as we maintain a center to teach, display and promote art through providing art studios, hosting gallery shows, events and classes. The new logo design needs to visually capture the essence of the Beloit Art Center. Contest guidelines:
