We are planning to have excursions, field trips etc., during the non-meeting months.
Meeting locations around COLORADO SPRINGS to be determined depending upon various factors and planned activities.
The months when meetings are held in PUEBLO, we will do studio tours of those PPPS members who wish to participate in showing off their spaces and talents. These days would also be good for a plein air outing and/or a possible visit to area galleries or museums. These plans are still being formulated. You will be notified. Please check back here for more information and updates!
