Our chapter holds quarterly meetings and organized and impromptu field trips. Meetings are often held in the SF East Bay cities of Livermore & Dublin, and on Zoom when necessary. While typical business is conducted, the real fun starts when catching up with fellow members, learning from demonstrations by skilled and talented artists or reps from product companies, and seeing what everyone has been up to during the show-and-tell portion of the meeting. We welcome visitors and invite you to come and learn a bit more about colored pencil and make some new friends.
