20 professional artists from around Ohio will be setting up their easels in Downtown East Liverpool Saturday, May 15th, 2021 to kick off the Museum of Ceramics’ “40+1” Anniversary Celebration. (40+1 as the Museum’s 40th Anniversary Celebration had to be postponed due to Covid-19 last year.) Outdoor painters from the Ohio Plein Air Society (ohiopleinairsociety.com) and the Eastern Ohio Plein Air Club will check in at the Museum and be painting throughout the Downtown area from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Many of the artists attending have received national and regional recognition for their works. The paintings created will then be on display and for sale outside the Museum from 3 p.m. until about 4:30 p.m. In the event of inclement weather, the event will be held inside the Museum. The event is receiving support locally from Tim Horton’s and nationally from Golden Artist Colors, Judson’s Art Outfitters and Streamline Publications.
