    A paint-out is when a group of artists meet-up in a location to paint and draw together. When they meet at a scenic, inspiring outdoor location it's called a "plein air paint-out." It's a great way to share your talents, learn from others and enjoy the company!

    COST: Our cost for the Interest Group is $50 for the whole year, but even if you just come this summer, that is a bargain!

    SMALL ART INTEREST GROUP


    If you feel taking on an art project is daunting and you don't have time to create, maybe small art is just what you need!

    Not only is going small economical, but it also enables you to finish something in a short amount of time, try new subject matter and mediums, create a ready stash of "giftables", and participate in art trades and have fun!

    Small Art examples include:

    • Artist Trading Cards (2.5 in x 3.5 in)
    • Post Cards (4 in x 6 in or 5 in x 7 in)
    • Greeting Cards
    • Index Cards (3 in x 5 in)
    • Small canvases, panels, papers, etc.


    This fun Small Art group meets the first and third Wednesday of each month (except for holidays and summer months).

    This group provides participants an opportunity to work on their art, get inspired, and create worry free art with other people also interested in Small Art.

    All levels are welcome! 

    Bring your favorite art supplies and let's get small!

    Please note this is not a class. It is a meet-up group for Small Art.

    Dates: Wednesday, October 1st and Wednesday, October 15th

    Time: 10:00am to 12:30pm

    COST: $5 for TWAL members, $10 for non-members
