  • The Copley Society’s Fresh Paint Is a Perfect Walk for Sunday Dogs and Their Humans.

    Next Sunday, April 24, 2016, is Fresh Paint Day! Put it on your dog walk calendar because that’s when the talented artists from the Copley Society of Art spread out across the area to create a fresh work of art that will be auctioned off at their May 5th gala.

    A few years ago, we had the pleasure of meeting Amber when she was in the Public Garden assisting her own personal artist as he worked on his Fresh Paint contribution.

    It’s also a great photo walk for those who love to give their cameras or phones the challenge of recording what’s happening on a day like this. 

    Gather the pack, get a map of where the artists will be from the Copley Society, plan a picnic lunch along the way, and give the dogs a nice long walk while you pick out your favorite piece of artwork to bid on for that doghouse of yours.

  • Painting the Town: Fresh Paint Event from the Copley Society

    PMC_3140 - Version 22012-05-20-hilary-baldwin-fresh-paint-copley-society-© 2011 Penny Cherubino

    Once a year, the Copley Society sends its artist members across the city to capture Boston at that moment in time. The event is called Fresh Paint. The works produced are sold a week later at a gala auction to benefit the organization.

    They say: "The Copley Society of Art, Co|So, is the oldest non-profit art association in the United States, with a history dating back to 1879. We currently represent over 500 living artist members, ranging in experience from students to nationally-recognized artists and in style from traditional and academic realists to contemporary and abstract painters, photographers, and sculptors."

    We Say: This is one of our favorite walks of the year. It's free, you pick your route, you get to meet and chat with talented people, and you can even take your dog along. And, the Co|So gallery on Newbury Street is always worth a visit. Drop by before the weekend, pick up a map, gather some friends, and enjoy this uniquely Boston experience.

    In the photo above from last year, artist Hilary Baldwin had a perfect day to paint a scene of the Public Garden and the Back Bay beyond.
