PAPU (Plein Air Painters of the Umpqua)
'Tis the season to break out of your studios and get out of doors. That is what many of the UVAA artists are doing. All you need is your easel, paint supplies, camp stool, comfy clothes, hat, sunscreen, sack of snacks and garbage bag, water and enthusiasm!
Every Monday, rain or shine, from March through September, the artists meet on location to paint until they drop! This is a friendly way to network with others, get feedback and encouragement to begin and continue to paint from life. Any media is welcome.
Call Aleta at the Arts Center for more information 541-672-2532.
