Calling All Artists!
Paint Now! Enter Later! Paint our Parke County Historic Sites and participate in the Historic Indiana Project with the Indiana Plein Air Painters Association! |
|
April 2019 - June 1 2020
Become an Indiana Plein Air Painters Association member to participate in this event!
There is still plenty of time to participate in the upcoming Historic Indiana en Plein Air exhibit. Your subject matter must be a neighborhood, downtown, bridge, farmhouse, or other item or place that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. How would you know? Confirm the designation using Indiana DNR’s SHAARD database:
1. Go to https://secure.in.gov/apps/dnr/shaard/welcome.html
2. Log in as a guest.
3. From the next screen, select survey type "National Register"
4. On the next screen, select your county from the drop-down menu towards the top, then go down to last item and select "Listed in BOTH National Register and State Register."
5. Click on search button. This will display a list of every National Register site in that county. If you go to an entry, the last tab “PDFs and Photos” will have the full nomination text AND for districts, a map with the boundaries. This is important because, for example, Muncie, has a number of historic districts with hundreds of buildings and street scenes as possible subject matter.
Questions about what’s listed and what is not listed? Contact Paul Diebold atpdiebold@dnr.in.gov or 317-232-3493.

You can be an IPAPA artist and participate! Indiana DNR is partnering with IPAPA to celebrate some important milestones. It’s the 50th anniversary of Indiana’s National Register of Historic Places program, and Indiana is about to have its 2000th entry in the National Register.
DNR manages these programs for Indiana, and is partnering for a touring exhibit
with expanded catalog.
Create your plein air pieces from April 1, 2019 – June 12, 2020. Online entries and forms will begin in January through the close of the event in June 2020. Entries must not exceed 320 square inches of painted surface. Entry form for IPAPA members only must be a member in 2019 and 2020. Subject matter must be on the National Register of Historic Places. The list includes nearly 2000 items: neighborhoods, farms, mills, parks, archaeological sites, down towns, bridges, buildings, and more.
