9-11am at Middlebridge Preserve, 95 Middlebridge Road, Narragansett, RI 02882

Click here to sign up. All are welcome to this free event.

On Saturday morning, August 10, 2024, Narrow River Preservation Association welcomes artists of all ages and skill levels welcome to create art along Narrow River.

(Rain date Sunday, August 11, same time and location.)

  • “Plein air” (open air) painters will demonstrate their techniques and others will give instruction in drawing and painting scenes of the Middlebridge area.
  • Bring your own easel or sketch pad.  Sketch your version of an expansive landscape view or crouch down and capture a still life view of oysters on the fringe of the salt marsh.
  • NRPA will provide other guided activities including paper and supplies needed to make seaweed art and fish prints. We encourage you to bring blank T-shirts and/or pillowcases so you can make a fish print onto those, too!

FREE and open to all ages!  The gathering area is a field with grass and dirt surfaces. Wheelchairs are welcome.

If you would like to volunteer to support this event, then please VISIT THIS LINK to share your areas of interest with us.

Thanks to everyone who joined us on Saturday, August 6, 2022 for Art on the River

We had a wonderful time creating seaweed art, making fish prints, learning to play hubbub from Silvermoon LaRose of the Tomaquag Museum and then each decorating our own hubbub game to keep!
