November 7 Open-air painting competition in San Javier
Great prizes for the best paintings presented on the day in 3 age categories
Following its unfortunate postponement in early October due to adverse weather conditions, the inaugural edition of the San Javier open-air painting competition, sponsored by Fundación Caja Rural Regional, is being held on Saturday 7th November in Santiago de la Ribera.
Anyone who wishes to take part can do so: simply come along to registration at the Real Club de Regatas with your materials between 9.00 and 11.00 and complete your painting (dimensions between 70x50 and 120x120 cm) by 17.00: you’ll soon know whether the judges like your work as the winners are announced at 18.00!
(Alternatively, register before 5th November by email at concurso@lalumier.es).
The theme of the painting should be the local landscape and/or seascape, and over 3,400 euros is available in prize money in the adult and junior categories!
