Paint Waxahachie

PAINT WAXAHACHIE !
This is the third year for a week long paint out in
Waxahachie. Artists have eight days to paint in and around
the Waxahachie square. The court house, shops, an old
feed store, the Gezendaner park and many
gingerbread houses are among
the interesting subjects to pick from to paint.
On the last two days of the paint out,
Saturday and Sunday, June 7 and 8
all the paintings done during the time period and painted on
location are hung for a juried show with cash awards
and on sale to the public.
On Friday there is a "Quick Draw". Each artist
participating has 90 minutes to complete a painting
around the downtown court house area.
At "high noon" 12 o'clock there will be a live auction of these
Quick Draw Paintings.
If you want to get outside this weekend, come to Waxahachie and see
the art along with the Gingerbread Trail of beautiful old homes in
picturesque Waxahachie, Texas.
