ACTIVITIES

You can see what BWS has on its schedule by reviewing our BWS Calendar.

BWS is well represented at all times across the area, not just by the quality of our art, but by the activities of our members! We offer classes, shows, and other events.

BWS meets the second Monday of each month at 6:00 p.m. COVID conditions may determine how and when we meet. 

Our BWS meetings begin with a business portion to communicate what activities are planned.  The second half of the meeting is an educational program relating to art. The leader may be a BWS member or art instructor from outside the organization. The program may be a new technique, an experiment with a new medium, or a discussion about an art form.  It is often a follow-along activity.

Here is a list of some meeting program topics that will be or have been offered recently.

  • Etegami-Japanese Postcards Art on Rice Paper
  • “Finding Joy and Confidence in Watercolor, and What I’ve Been Learning Along the Way”
  • One Stroke Flowers
  • Discussion: How do I know when my painting is done?

BWS also hosts paintouts, field trips, workshops, gallery shows, and other activities.
