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.

**GREAT NEWS OUR END OF SUMMER POTLUCK for members will be held at Joan Zivic's lovely home at 6369 South Ponds Way, Littleton. You can come early around 9:30 and paint in her Japanese Garden, or just come to socialize later. Lunch will be served at 11:30! This date will be August 26th, 2026. Suzanne M. will be filling in for our Treasurer Linda Lippert who will be having knee replacement surgery. So you can bring your check or cash for $50.00 for the annual dues for Paint Box Guild and give it to Suzanne. This helps to avoid the crush at our first meeting at First Presbyterian Church on September 2nd, 2026. Make your checks out to 'Paint Box Guild' no abbreviations please, (the bank doesn't like it), or she will have envelopes you can fill out if you bring cash!
"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.
