Welcome to Paint the Peninsula 2016! Blue Hill Public Library's fresh paint fundraiser is now in its sixth year and just gets better and better. Area artists create works in the morning that are displayed and sold at a reception and silent auction later in the day. Proceeds are shared between artists and library, raising significant funds for BHPL.
Close to 500 people attend the Reception and Silent Auction and usually 80% of submitted work sells at the event. We are fortunate to live in a community with so many talented artists and people who love art.
