Horseshows at Brownland Farm
1155 Hillsboro Rd. - Franklin, TN

Brownland Farm is a horse farm/horse show facility just North of Franklin on Hillsboro Rd. They are having shows the next two weekends so there will be lots of activity at the farm and lots of people and horses to paint (or practice painting). These are hunters and jumpers and the competition starts at 8:00 a.m. (The owners of the farm, Mack and Sissie Anderton, are very generous in allowing us to paint here, especially during a show, but ask that we follow a couple simple rules -see special instructions below.)
Here's a link - http://www.brownlandfarm.com/ with directions and show schedules.

From Hillboro Rd., it's the last right before the bridge over the Harpeth (just N. of Franklin).
From I-65/Cools Springs, take Mack Hatcher to Hillsboro Rd., turn Right, cross the bridge over the Harpeth, then immediately turn left into Brownland Farm.

Special Instructions:
#1 - Parking - We are to park in this lot (if there is room)- which should be your first left turn after the main house. Turn left at this stone wall, then into this field.
If the above field is full - turn right at this sign..."All Day Hauler Parking". (It's right across from the stone wall.)Then, drive straight back to this trailer (to stay away from the "haulers").#2 - Don't spook the horses!
Please do not set up your easels too close to the fences - say 5-6 feet. Just be careful in setting up your easels that you do not scare the horses - they will not know what you are doing.I'm very excited about painting here and hope a bunch of you join me. (Sissie is the sister of the Sclater Brown, the man I worked for - for many years.
The Farm is huge - call me if you want to know where we're painting !! 513-0511
Happy Painting
