INOLA Blue Ridge, located at 9265 Blue Ridge Drive, within Fannin County, has opened their
incredible property to our fall event. Nestled within Blue Ridge, this unique colonial-style
village includes the Wythe House Mansion, the Wetherburn Tavern, and a Virginia chapel
from the 1700s. Built by an eccentric visionary in the 1980s, the estate is taking on a new life
as an upscale mixed-use property and is a welcomed addition to our event.

Artworks created during the Quick Paint event will be offered to the public during a silent

one (1) piece in the Silent Auction. These works are not eligible for Plein Air Event judging
and awards on Sunday, but will be eligible to hang in the event exhibit.

Following the judging, participating artists of the Quick Paint event are encouraged to
