A collaborative effort of dozens of Whitefish artists to capture the quintessential beauty of Whitefish will support fundraising efforts for a new Stumptown Art Studio building that is planned adjacent to the current location downtown.
On Saturday, July 13, over 25 Whitefish artists will spread out across the city for Stumptown Art Studio’s first ever Whitefish Paint Out event. People are invited to visit the artists to watch them create local masterpieces from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
“We wanted to get a variety of locations that were diverse in representing Whitefish. So we put a list together of iconic places and then asked artists what place spoke to them and fit to their style,” said Charity Flowers, education and art director at the nonprofit studio.
