Portsmouth Arts Guild Paint Off

Posted

Join us as 8 local artists race the clock — and the sunset — to complete their paintings as we watch, chat, play trivia, snack and maybe indulge in a brew! “The Bite” food cart will be on location with tasty treats to soothe grumbling tummies and Ragged Island’s very own trivia host, Jamie Biscomb, will be running a fun Art Trivia game.
All evening long, check out our artists’ progress, and purchase raffle tickets for the chance to win your favorite painting. We end the evening with the exciting raffle drawing, and you might go home with a painting by one of our talented guest artists. Psst… don’t forget lawn chairs and bug spray!
Admission Tickets are $25 with children admitted free. Raffle tickets will be sold onsite throughout the evening ($5 for one, $20 for 5). All proceeds will go toward sponsoring PAG free artistic community events.

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
