As they work, Seafest goers will have the opportunity to move around the easels, closely watching the creative process. The medium is acrylic paint and the tools allowed are brushes, palette knives or any non-mechanical implements. Over the course of the Day, the audience votes democratically for their favourite painting - (Prizes will be Awarded).
There is no fee for entering the Battle however the Artwork created will be donated to the community following the event.
Nice weather forecast for this weekend “NOT” We have been pretty lucky the last few years with at least a mixed bag. They are calling for rain both days. Hopefully the weather gods can manage to change it.
I never trust the forecast.
It could say 90% chance of rain sometimes, and we will be sitting outside in the sun. Even if it does rain, we always have fun! (shameless plug) Come check out the car show on third ave and enter the Prince Rupert Auto Clubs reaction time contest!
