Grab your hat, bug spray and sunscreen, it's time to get outside to paint. We will paint each Wednesday this summer, weather permitting. An email will let you know the location each Sunday evening so we can check the weather forecast before choosing a site. The location will also be posted on our website.
WEDNESDAY, JULY 1, 2026 PAINT-OUT
DeKOEVEND PARK, LITTLETON
***It's going to be hot! We will be painting near the creek at the edge of the playing fields, in the area directly below the parking lot on the west side of S University at S Josephine Way. See the attached map for clarity. There is lots of shade, nice views of the water and nearby facilities. DeKoevend Park Link***
Linda Lippert will be unable to host our traditional end of summer potluck. Are any of you itching to host the PBGers August 26? Please let me know.

"Everything that is painted directly and on the spot has always a strength, a power, a vivacity of touch which one cannot recover in the studio... three strokes of a brush in front of nature are worth more than two days
of work at the easel." -- Eugene Boudin
"You can't do sketches enough. Sketch everything and keep your curiosity fresh." — John Singer Sargent

We will plan one week at a time from June through August. The schedule will be posted here on the PBG website for any last minute changes. These will be announced no later than Tuesday morning. If the temperature is predicted to reach 95 degrees or higher, we will cancel the day for everyone's comfort and safety, or meet elsewhere.
Bring your paints, chair, shade umbrella (if you need it), and lunch. Everything is flexible... just come and share some fun.
