Each artist will make his/her own interpretations of the same places described in Moran's sketchbook, which will be on display at the Human HIstory Museum in Zion National Park during the paint out. A wet painting exhibit and sale will be held at the Bingham Gallery 5pm Friday April 24 at Carmel Junction in East Zion.
