Ever wanted your portrait painted by Joel Mesler? Now’s your chance.

Over the past 8 years, Joel Mesler has painted over a thousand portraits. Part performance, a hap-happy-happening, Mesler has created unique opportunities for guests and passersby experience a mini-portrait session at venues such as Independent Art, Levy Gorvy Dayan, and The Mark Hotel, on a ferry, and even at artist Austyn Weiner’s wedding. And now a few folks will get to sit down for a session at Guild Hall.
