Second Saturday Paint-outs and more with SCAPE
As stated in the Articles of Incorporation of Southern California Artists Painting for the Environment, the specific purposes for which this corporation is formed are to promote camaraderie and provide exhibition and educational opportunities for its members and increase member and public awareness in regard to the general benefit of open spaces and other non-profitable purposes.”
“SCAPE offers members the opportunity from January through November to meet and paint together on the Second Saturday of the month. In addition, a selected artist will be invited to demonstrate and encourage SCAPE artists with their paintings and this will be posted in the Newsletter and on the WEB.
“Paint-Out Chairman April 2008-March 2009 is Wythe Platte, wythe@cox.net
Paint-outs are open to all SCAPE members. No fee or advanced registration required. Paint-outs will be announced to SCAPE members through monthly email updates, by regular mail for those without email, and will be listed on the CALENDAR section of the SCAPE website so check the site for current information.

ALWAYS SIGN THE FORM FOR RELEASE OF LIABILITY AT A PAINT-OUT.
There are certain paint-outs that require a reservation as they are being held on private land or lands managed by one of our beneficiaries such as EDC: Coal Oil Point, Sedgwick, Salt Marsh.
April 12th we painted at Sedgwick Preserve, managed by UCSB and in order for SCAPE to paint there an application was completed and permission granted. Pre-reservations were not required; however painters were required to sign in. Kate McCurdy was a most gracious hostess and the 11 of us who painted there that day had a great experience as Duke’s Ranch House was opened to us and we were able to explore the ranch.
Sedgwick is only open to painters upon completion of the permit and acceptance of the application. The disclaimer for both the owner or administrator of a site (in this case, UCSB) and SCAPE is an agreement to sign a release by the administrator or owner of the Paint Out site to hold it and SCAPE harmless from any liability by reasons of artist(s) painting on the site. In order for SCAPE to continue to be able to paint at Sedgwick and enjoy our association with them, please do not go to Sedgwick Ranch on your own. This is also true of Santa Ines Mission Mills property. They love painters but there is too much liability for them.
