New Plein Air Festival Comes to Morro Bay, CA to Support the Town's Thriving and Growing Art Culture
MORRO BAY, Calif., Dec. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- It's impossible to mistake Morro Bay for any other California surf town. Not just for the incredible active outdoor environment with working harbor and miles of pristine beaches. Not just for the natural estuary filled with infinite watchable wildlife, not to mention the massive, ancient volcanic plug known as Morro Rock that rises 576 feet from the ocean. Nope. But because it's also filled with incredibly talented artists showcasing works in every art medium imaginable from the fabulous Morro Bay Art Center to funky and fine galleries found all over town. Just wander the charming downtown village or stroll the active Embarcadero located right on the waterfront and you'll see it all for yourself.
"For the artist in many of us, Morro Bay is the perfect place to pull out a camera or easels and document all of its beauty," explains Patricia Newton, President of the Morro Bay Art Association. "It's the perfect place for locals and visitors alike to enjoy breathtaking views where rolling hills meet the sea. Not to mention exploring all of the magnificent ways artists in Morro Bay interpret art and beauty at the plethora of galleries and shops."
