Upcoming Paint Outs
Paintout start time is 9:00 a.m. on Saturdays or 1 p.m. on Mondays. We usually wrap up about 3 hours later.
Paint outs are free for members. Workshops and critiques are free to MBPAPA members. Non members are welcome to attend and can join MBPAPA on the spot. With all these options and opportunities to learn and improve skills, the price of membership is a fabulous value.
Rain checks for workshops: Workshops will be rescheduled for the following Monday or the following Saturday, depending on the leader's availability. Alternately, the workshop leader may opt to hold the workshop at his/her studio on the originally scheduled day.
