Driving the highways and byways around Cambridge this past week, it's become usual practice to see an artist standing in a field, at the side of a road, or along a river bank, staring at a vista. It can only mean one thing--plein air artists have returned to the area. Last year it was Russian artists and their North American friends, this year it's artists from around the country.

You are invited to view their works at a pop-up exhibit hosted by the Bryan Memorial Gallery on Saturday, March 23, from 5:00 - 8:00 p.m. The artists will be on hand to talk about their work. Refreshments will be provided. For more information, call the gallery at 644-5100 or email info@brangallery.org. See you there!
