Santa Cruz Watercolor Color Society

In the early 1970s, a group of plein air artists formed the nucleus of what became the Santa Cruz Watercolor Society when they began to create a bulletin that published where they planned to meet. The organization has grown and networked and now includes opportunities for all watercolorists whether or not their interest is focused on plein air painting. Come see the current cohort’s work at our exclusive two week exhibition.
