Paint Slam returns to the Fran Hill Gallery\u00a0for its 3rd year!<\/p>\n

From 4 pm to dusk on Saturday, July 14, five teams of four artists will step gladiator-style onto eight canvasses with fistfuls of brushes and the occasional pallet knife, to duke it out.<\/p>\n

What’s at stake? Perhaps it’s their artistic reputations, as the jibes and howls of on-lookers punctuate every slash and stab until the empire rings the final bell. Who will be painted into a corner? Who lives to paint another round?<\/p>\n

Works remain in the gallery till the end of August.<\/p>\n

Hosted by Leon Rooke.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Music provided by Odradek<\/strong><\/p>\n
