On Saturdays in August and September, Weir Farm National Historic Site's popular Take Part in Art program will feature a professional artist who will provide informal guidance and instruction to anyone interested in painting with watercolors en plein air. Local artists Marc Chabot and Bobbi Eike Mullen, along with watercolor supplies provided by the National Park Service, will be available from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM every Saturday. All are welcome to participate in this free program, no matter your age or experience level, and enjoy the unique opportunity of working alongside a professional artist in a landscape that has inspired artists for generations.
