Plein Air Winners to be Showcased at Rock Tavern UU
ROCK TAVERN – The Wallkill River School of Art will be showcasing winners from
its 2021 Hudson Valley Plein Air Festival competition at the Unitarian Universalist
Congregation at Rock Tavern in January and February.
In October, fifty professional artists competed in a one-week outdoor landscape
painting competition in the Hudson Valley. Fifteen were awarded prizes. The
public is welcome to view, and purchase those works. A gallery opening and
reception is scheduled for Saturday, Feb. 5 from 2 to 4 p.m. The previous
opening , slated for Jan. 8, was cancelled because some of the artists could not
attend. Additional showings are available by contacting Mike Landrum at 845-
851-6024. The gallery ends on Feb. 28.

The mission of the Wallkill River School of Art “is to enrich our community
through art classes, public art exhibits and to provide resources for local artists…”
It serves the community by providing free Senior Drop-in classes, free classes to
veterans, scholarships for local children to attend the Summer Art Program,
charity fundraisers, badges for scout troops and meeting space for community
and non-profit groups.
Landrum, an actor and artist who leads the congregation’s arts mission, noted
that the gallery will be adhering to the latest COVID 19 guidance and added that
“now, more than ever, we need to celebrate, embrace and support our local
artists. This is an opportunity to do just that.”
