Festival de Peinture de Magne

Although I am not associated with the event in any way – apart from being a participant, I would like to bring this event to your attention.

Magne is the name of a small French village in the south west of France, and their annual plein air weekend painting festival has been going for 27 years and attracts hundreds of participants. One of the reasons is that they offer about 10,000 euro worth of prizes, but also is a lovely place to paint.

This year, 2015, the festival is held on the 18^th and 19^th of July, and you can get more details from their website at www.festivalpeinturemagne.com.

We are about 45 minutes away from the festival, and have just finished completely refurbishing our guest accommodation (the Gite d’Art), from which we are running painting holidays in France. If you would like to have a break and paint in France, we are offering quality self-contained accommodation. As July is not in the high season, we can be quite flexible about length of stay and checkout/in days. For example you might like to stay for a week or 5 or 6 days, and attend the festival and also paint in a variety of locations in close proximity to the Gite on either side of the festival dates.

For more details and costs on booking the Gite d’Art, please visit http://www.ownersdirect.co.uk/accommodation/p8172456

WE ARE OFFERING A 10% DISCOUNT ON THESE PRICES TO FELLOW PAINTERS
