Planning for Onset Street Painting Festival begins

Jul 9, 2013

Come talk about a proposed event that will give artists an outdoor canvas Thursday, July 25, at 6 p.m. at the Onset Bay Association office, located at 4 Union Ave. in Onset.

The association will discuss holding a street painting festival in 2014. The first meeting will focus on funding and promoting the event, as well as other logistics.

Onset Bay Association President Eleanor Martin encourages others to join in the planning.

"The Onset Bay Association is proud to be supporting this community venture," said Martin. "We believe that anything that can be done to keep art as a part of the lifeline of Onset is beneficial to not only the residents of Wareham/Onset, but any visitor who comes into the town. This project will give young and old a chance to see art being made right before their eyes."
