NEW PALTZ, NY (July 23, 2020) – Historic Huguenot Street is excited to announce the return of Artists on the Street: A Plein Air Event, which will take place Saturday, Aug. 1, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
This year’s event will span the 10-acre National Historic Landmark District and will feature a dozen local artists, including Kevin Cook, Carolyn Edlund, Staats Fasoldt, Mira Fink, Emeline Hastings, Chris O’Neal, Mitchell Saler, Vaune Sherin, Joseph Sundwall, Fran Sutherland, and Marlene Weidenbaum, PSA-MP.
The HHS staff and volunteers have worked hard to prepare the site in order to welcome visitors back for one of its first public events since the March 2020 closure. Visitors can expect to see these talented, local artists painting live, treat themselves to plant-based tropical Italian comfort food from the Baba Food Truck, register to vote with volunteers from the League of Women Voters, and check in with HHS staff who can update them on the museum’s phased re-opening and pre-register them for other upcoming events.
