Penticton Plein Air Group

/by

Penticton Plein Air Painters are moving to our Fall schedule.

Starting October 15th, 2013 we will be meeting just once a week on Thursdays, at noon. Bring along your painting materials, warm weather gear, a snack and some hot beverages.

We will continue to meet at the Starbucks by Quality Greens at the north entrance to Penticton, BC. If the weather does not cooperate we will move indoors to Shatford Centre, meaning too much rain or wind or snow!

Check by Lloyd Gallery on Front Street for event updates! As always, our paint outs are free and everyone is welcome whether an experienced hand or a beginner. There are no dues or fees and there is only one rule…to have fun!
