July 19 - July 20, 202510:00 pm - 1:00 am
The NAA welcomes many returning artists along with new artists to share their work with the art lovers throughout northern Michigan. We are thrilled to have so many artists coming to paint throughout the tip of Leelanau Peninsula and the Village of Northport. These amazing, diverse artists capture the beauty of the village, beaches, marina, orchards, vineyards, landscapes and landmarks. Their interpretation of our special peninsula rewards viewers with artistry that reflects the magic of our area.
The artists paint July 18 and 19. Each artist has the option to submit 3 paintings each day, as well as an additional “golden hour” painting if they signed up to paint into the Friday evening.
Last year we had about 200 artworks and when the doors opened at 6pm, people were lined up around the corner to get in and have first dibs on original art of Northport and nearby areas.
The opening reception on July 20 from 6-9pm will feature fresh, wet off the easel paintings of various media and styles. Come support the arts and find your next one of a kind piece of art.
Tickets are available online through MyNorthTickets.com. Online tickets are $17 (plus processing fees). Tickets are $20 at the door the evening of the event.
After the Wet Paint Sale on July 19, our gallery exhibit runs from July 20 – August 2, 12-4pm Tuesday-Sunday. We encourage people to come to the reception for the best chance to see all of the one of a kind art created by the artists.
