Vote Now for Favorite Brighton Painting

Twenty-five artists participated in the Plein Air Brighton Paint Out competition creating 27 paintings of scenes from downtown Brighton in about 6 hours. 

Voting is now taking place with two winners chosen for a “Most Popular Award” which will be determined by public vote and a “Best in Show” which will be a juried pick. 

The popular voting is happening now at ArtVentures and will continue from August 2 in the art tent until the evening of August 3. 

The paintings will be moved to the Grape tent, a gallery and wine tasting tent, at the Brighton Fine Art and Acoustic Music Festival where they will stay for the weekend.

Winners will be announced August 4.

“Many of the artists competing in Brighton Paint Out are artists from SE Michigan who compete in plein air around the state. We have some really fine pieces here,” Roblee, Chair of the BACC and co-owner of ArtVentures stated. “Anyone familiar with Brighton will recognize the store and restaurant fronts as well as scenes along the Mill Pond.”

The Brighton Paint Out event was a collaboration between the Brighton Art and Cultural Commission, The Brighton Art Guild and The Greater Brighton Area Chamber of Commerce.
