PWS was organized in 1974 by a group of watercolor painters, all students of Alfred Dunn at the University of Idaho. Some of the earliest members included Linda Wallace, Kay Montgomery, Junette  Dahmen, Flip Kleffner and Malcolm Renfrew. PWS has flourished since then, with a continual membership of thirty to forty artists. 

We have annual exhibits at Artisans at the Dahmen Barn in Uniontown and Moscow's Artwalk;  and also promote other exhibit and sales opportunities for our members.

Visitors are always welcome at our monthly meetings. They are held at 10 am on the first Wednesday of each month, in the conference room of the United Church of Moscow, 123 W 1^st Street. Note: meetings may be temporarily suspended as of September 2021 because of COVID concerns. Please email us for updates.

In addition to a short business meeting, we talk about local art events and workshops, and share things we’ve learned about painting with watercolors or acrylics.

Members volunteer to bring paintings for either “show and tell” or critique, and this is one of the most informative and fun parts of the meeting. Afterwards, many of us have lunch together at a local restaurant.
