What is Primary Colours?

An organization devoted to integrating visual artists and the community to create and sustain a thriving environment for the arts. Find out more.

Ready, Set, Paint!

Registrations are starting to stream in as artists rev up for their shot at the Butler Scion $3,500 Grand Prize. Make sure you guarantee your spot by pre-registering online. The entry fee is $15.

This year's Paint Day takes place on Saturday, September 12, 2009, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. We're at the Stutz Business Center on 1030 N. Capitol Ave. (map) It's a big building, so be sure to enter on the Capitol Ave., B Building entrance. (Please note the change of location and time!)

You'll have just four hours to paint your entry with the materials we provide. (Full rules here.) The public is invited to watch our artists paint free of charge.

Questions? Check out our FAQ or e-mail us.

Participants and enthusiasts alike, be sure to check the Art vs. Art Web site on Monday, September 14 to vote for your faves online. Remember, YOU determine who makes it to the Main Event!

Wanna be a Part of the Action?

A lot of moving parts make Art vs. Art such a unique and exciting event. We couldn't pull it off without the help of our terrific team of volunteers. We could use help in the following areas:

• Street team
• Art bin sales
• Spotlight operator
• Auction escort
• Artist Check-in
• and More!
  

If you want to help us out, contact Natalie Ingle by e-mail or phone (317) 531-4128.
