LIGHT CHASERS
http://www.lightchasersinc.com
With more than 700 members,
Light Chasers fosters
education, participation,
appreciation and exhibition
opportunities for each
artist that belongs to the
organization. Light Chasers
teach the painting and
business skills needed for
any artist to thrive. Each
year, eight Featured Artists
from Light Chasers host
free demos, with the 2020
artists being Joseph McGurl,
Morgan Samuel Price,
Dominic Avant, Susan J.
Foster, Hodges Soileau, Terry
Mason, Katie Dobson Cundiff
and Joseph Melançon.
Along with their
demonstrations, the artists
participate in the annual
Featured Artist Show
alongside other Light Chasers
members who will exhibit in
the ninth annual Member’s
Show on Friday, January 24.
The group also hosts the
Paint Sarasota Paint Out
on January 25. The events
happen at the Edson Keith
Mansion in Sarasota, Florida.
The group follows the

exhibitions with one of the
largest quick draw contests
in Florida on February 12.
More than 100 artists usually
participate in the event by
painting all over the 66 acres
of Phillippi Estate Park during
the Farmer’s Market.

More than 4,000 people
attend the Light Chasers’
events every year, which
also includes, for the
eight Featured Artists, an
exhibition at Palm Avenue
Fine Arts in Sarasota the first
week of April.
