Plein Air Nashville is Invited to join The Chestnut Group
Painting at Glen Leven Mansion

'Once in a Blue Moon 10 - Kick off Paintout"
at Glen Leven Mansion
4000 Franklin Road
Nashville, TN

The following was taken from a Chestnut Group announcement" .....
Once again, The Land Trust for Tennessee will be having their Annual Fundraiser, Once in a Blue Moon, at Glen Leven on October 9, 2010. And The Chestnut Group will again be working with them - painting various Land Trust Properties throughout Tennessee, up until that time. The paintings will then be for sale at the party, with half the proceeds going back to The Land Trust.

We want to kick off this Blue Moon season, with a paintout this Saturday - at Glen Leven.  Bring your lunch, spend the day and paint, paint, paint. Thankfully, our steamy weather has left us and it should be very nice.

As we did last year, we will try to paint once during the week and once on the weekend. We're also going to try to cover more territory and see more of these gorgeous sites. Watch your emails!

If you have any questions, please email me directly,

If you have never been to Glen Leven, there are two gates onto the property.  The main gate (in front of the house) will be locked.  We are to use the Opened Gate, which is South of the Main Gate.  It leads you through a field - almost to the house.  Park in this field and walk to the house.

Glen Leven Estate in Nashville
In an incredibly generous gift, The Land Trust for Tennessee was bequeathed the historic Glen Leven home and its surrounding sixty-five acres from Susan M. West. The property is located in Nashville, Tennessee at 4000 Franklin Road. In fulfilling Ms. West's wishes for her property, The Land Trust is giving thoughtful consideration to ideas on what to do with this treasure in Davidson County.

The mission of The Land Trust for Tennessee is 'to preserve the unique character of Tennessee's natural and historic landscapes and sites for future generations'.
