From July 15-17, selected artists will create outdoor paintings at designated locations in Cape Elizabeth. On July 17, the artwork will be auctioned off, with a portion of the proceeds benefitting  the land trust’s conservation efforts of Cape Elizabeth’s shores, marshes, farmlands and woodlands.

Artists are asked to submit three images of original outdoor paintings in any medium. Thirty artists will be selected.

The deadline for submissions is March 18. For more information, including how to submit artwork, visit capelandtrust.org.
