Paint for Preservation Wet Paint Benefit Auction 2024

One of Maine's premier art auctions, Paint for Preservation 2024 features the work of 31 juried award-winning plein air artists who paint all weekend outdoors at locations chosen to highlight the stunning sea- and landscapes of Cape Elizabeth, Maine. Artists donate a portion of art sales to benefit the land conservation and stewardship programs of the Cape Elizabeth Land Trust (CELT).

Held at the stunning seaside Castle at Garrison Field, this exciting annual auction will feature a catered reception, live music, and sales of smaller paintings by the participating artists sold as Mystery Boxes. To learn more and see samples of the artists' work visit www.capelandtrust.org/paint.

The public is invited to watch the artists at work beginning on Friday, June 21 and throughout the weekend. A free map of locations, along with biographies the artists, will be available at many locations around town, as well as online at CELT’s website (www.capelandtrust.org/paint) and on our Facebook page.
