PASA - Pastel Artists of South Australia

PASA Plein Air groups

 

As a new initiative PASA is pleased to announce PASA Plein Air Painting groups. Since members are spread over a large area we have attempted to cater for most. We will have three groups as follows:
 
Hills and Vales Group: Coordinator Petrina Meldrum petrinameldrum@icloud.com
 
Adelaide Plains Group: Coordinator Eleanor Jackson Bowers Honeybower01@gmail.com
 
Northern Group: Coordinator Karan Hudson cuehudsons@outlook.com
 
Each group will schedule one plein air outing per month in their geographical area. If you would like to attend, please register as a member of that group so that you can be contacted in case of cancellation due to inclement weather or change of plans.  Contact the regional coordinator to register. You don't need to register every time.
