The village of Schaumburg is seeking artist entries for the eighth annual Prairie Plein Air Competition.

The village and Prairie Center Arts Foundation invites plein air artists to participate in the Plein Air Competition and Show by creating an original plein air painting or drawing of any location in Schaumburg. Plein air is a French expression that refers to art created outdoors with the artist's subject in full view.

Submitted works will be displayed in the Herb Aigner Gallery inside the Al Larson Prairie Center for the Arts from May 16 to June 30 and will coincide with the 31st annual Prairie Arts Festival.

Entries are due by Friday, April 13. Visit bit.ly/2kDsfEG.
