2013 Buckhorn Fine Art Festival

Posted by: Buckhorn Fine Art Festival

The 36th Annual Buckhorn Fine Art Festival

The award-winning Buckhorn Fine Art Festival (formerly the Buckhorn Wildlife Art Festival) has a time-honoured reputation for showcasing gallery-quality displays of fine art that appeal to a broad range of art enthusiasts and collectors.

A Top 100 FEO event for the past 6 years, the Buckhorn Fine Art Festival always inspires visitors to linger longer to experience demonstrations and special presentations by the artists themselves, and performances from a variety of accomplished musicians. The Festival also includes an amateur art competition, a youth art display, and interactive art activities for children of all ages, all in a picturesque woodland setting.

Preview Night (Friday August 16) offers patrons the opportunity to interact with the artists on site and be the first to view the their new works at a relaxed pace. Enjoy the special presentations, fine hors d’oeuvres and live entertainment in a casual garden party atmosphere.

Be among the first to view the ARABELLA Canadian Landscape Painting Collection on tour! The Buckhorn Fine Art Festival special exhibit of 2013 features the finalists and winners of the ARABELLA Canadian Landscape Painting contest (details at www.arabellacanadianlandscape.com).

Add your own brushstrokes to the Buckhorn Community Mural, the very first of the brand new Kawartha Outdoor Gallery collection! Learn more about this exciting initative at a special presentation on August 17.

There are lots of things to do and see: plan to make a weekend of it, and meet me in Buckhorn!
