 This coming Monday, January 28, 2013 the Bandon Monday Plein Air Painters will meet at the Coquille Valley Art Center at 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

It is located at 10144 Hwy 42, southwest of Coquille, just past Coquille Supply on the right. 

If the weather is nice we can paint out; otherwise they have tables and easels to set up to paint a still life or paint the view from the windows.

See you there.

Thanks.
