"Bonus" May Paint Out for OOPS!

Join OOPS members as they paint all day at the annual New River Banks Party on Sunday, May 30th... details below...

New River Banks Party
Memorial Day Sunday, May 30, 2010
10:oo am ~ 4:00 pm
Water Front Park, Downtown Jacksonville



This picture is of a gathering of people on the banks of the New River in Jacksonville, North Carolina (circa 1905). Like in days of old... people will gather once again on the banks of the New River at Water Front Park near the Pellitier House in downtown Jacksonville.

This year the Onslow Historical Society’s New River Banks Party will be May 30 from 10:00am to 4:00pm. Highlights will be the Chowder cook-off, OOPS Paint-out and this year the Card Board Regatta will take to the water. The Onslow Historical Society receives Grassroots Grant money from the Council.

The celebration party is FREE to the public! Make plans to attend...

OPPS artists will position themselves around the park and the historic Pellitier House painting en plein aire for one of their May Paint Outs from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm.

See you there...
