Artists Capturing Nature and A Part of History
In celebration of our first and very successful year, Artists in the Parks (AiP) and Bear Mountain Inn management firm Guest Services will be holding a special two day exhibit at Overlook Lodge in Bear Mountain, NY on Saturday and Sunday, Nov 21-22, 2009. The press and patrons are invited to see the work of this skilled, diverse, and dedicated group of artists, as well as purchase their work.
Artists in the Parks, an initiative of the Palisades Interstate Park Commission, is raising scenic awareness and funds for the Palisades Parks Conservancy (PPC) to support their conservation, preservation, and education initiatives as the funding partner with the Palisades Commission. 40% of the proceeds of the sold artwork will be donated to the Conservancy. The artwork, a combination of paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, and rustic craft is inspired by the surrounding areas and park lands in the Palisades Region. One of the group's missions is to nurture a love, understanding, and respect for the natural world. Purchasing artwork from an AiP artist is not only an investment in an original work of art of potential historic value, but also serves as an investment in our region's magnificent parklands. AiP members have a special opportunity to be part of a movement that has been going strong since the early 1900's to preserve and capture nature as it stands.
