Artists do not need to participate in the Plein Aire event to be eligible for the Regatta Art Show, however, they must register to participate in the show. Honorable Mentions and a $500 Purchase Award will be given at this event. All artwork is subject to approval from the Regatta Art Show Curator for its appropriateness for being included in the show.
