Join us for the tenth annual Plein Air Art Auction on Saturday, September 18! This is a fundraising event for the Belleville Historical Society in which local artists create original paintings of twelve historic sites in Belleville, en plein air (outdoors).

Prior to the sale, the paintings will be available to view at the Historic Garfield Street Saloon Museum from 11:30 a.m. until 1 p.m., when they will be auctioned to raise money for the historical society. The artists very generously donate their paintings to us for this event.

This is your opportunity to purchase an original work by an established artist depicting a setting significant to Belleville, while also providing the Belleville Historical Society much-needed support.

Even if you don’t buy a painting, we hope you will come out to see these beautiful works and join the fun! We’ll have live entertainment, and light snacks and drinks will be available.
