More than 40 artists will converge in Stanley Park to test their outdoor painting skills
Artists from across the country are set to converge in Blackpool this weekend to test their outdoor painting skills. Blackpool Art Society is holding its second Paint in the Park competition on Saturday at the resort’s award-winning Stanley Park after last year’s successful event.
Residents are being encouraged to go along to the park between 10am and 4pm to see the artists at work. This year’s event is sponsored by Blackpool Council.Susan Pugh, of Blackpool Art Society, based on Wilkinson Avenue, said; “We held the competition for the first time last year and we had 24 artists taking part and it was a great success. Everyone really enjoyed it and many of the artists are coming back. We are hoping to build on that and make the competition an annual event.
This year is also the 140th anniversary of the Blackpool Art Society whose members visit places across the Fylde coast each Monday to take part in ‘Plein Air’ painting.
