Finding us

We are available anytime by phone/text: (415) 342-6764 or (707) 304-3265, email: nbpleinair@yahoo.com Please don't hesitate to contact us if you are lost or can't make it...even if it's the middle of the day during the paint out. No worries :)

IMPORTANT RULES:

  • Please do not paint or post photos of headstones that clearly show the full names.
  • Families occasionally visit the cemetery, so please make sure not to set up over any graves.
I know rules are common sense, but I promised the Cemetery Director to pass those two rules along to our painters.

There is no waiver to sign (like St. Vincent's Church) since we're a small group. Thanks and see you there!
