The group of local artists travel weekly to different, scenic and historic locations on Long Island to paint 'en Plein Air' which means outdoors. They capture the beauty of local barns, waterviews, boats, buildings and changing seasons. The art show includes work done in 25 gorgeous locations.

The artwork is for sale as are prints, unique notecards and even cute bird house creations.
