Whether you're an artist or a community
organization, paint outs offer a wonderful
package of fun, interactive entertainment.
Everyone wants to experience creativity in the
making. A successful Paint Out promotes artists
and sells paintings, bringing income and profit for
artists and organizations alike.
This guide provides step by step practical
instructions for every single detail of the Paint
Out planning process. Everything from selecting
the artists, to selling wet canvases.
The appendix materials are worth the purchase
price all by themselves: sample letters to artist,
ad rates, catalog page layouts, and all the forms
we use to put on our own Paint Outs.
