Drawing and Painting Groups

   Throughout the year, PAL members get together to draw and paint in
more-or-less formal groups.

   Our Friday Painting Group has been meeting for many years. Currently they meet every Friday from 1-3pm. Contact Harry Sundberg at hesundberg@comcast.net or George Milliken gbmill2@comcast.net for information.

    Our Tuesday Figure Drawing Group meets at Donna Trent's studio every Tuesday (except the second Tuesday) from 10am-2pm. Anyone is welcome to join in and draw or paint from live models (often in costume). There's a small fee ($10) which goes toward models' fees. Contact Mimi VanBallenberghe at MimiStudio22@comcast.net for information.

     The Fox Island Painters meet Wednesdays at 10am at Nichols Community Center on Fox Island. All artists are welcome with payment of a $10 monthly fee. Contact Cece Anderson (253-549-4646) for information.

    During the summer, many of us meet to paint and draw en plein aire. Everyone is welcome to join in the fun:

   PAL's long-standing Plein Air Group meets every Thursday, through mid-September. The group meets at a different location each week. Most locations are in the greater Gig Harbor/South Kitsap area. We'll also have opportunities to join other organized plein air events and take out-of-the-area painting excursions. For a schedule of this summer's painting locations click here.
    For information on what to bring, or to be added to the Plein Air mailing list, contact Anne Knapp at annemknapp@gmail.com.

   The Drawing You In group will meet every Wednesday from July 7 - Sept. 22 (weather permitting). Hours are 1-3:30pm. This year we'll gather at the pavillion in Uptown Gig Harbor (near the entrance to the shopping center). For information, contact Anne Knapp at annemknapp@gmail.com
