Pacific Gallery Artists (PGA) is a non profit organization founded in 1946. We welcome all interested 2D and 3D artists. We are artists that work in many different mediums, and our members range from beginners to well know artists and teachers...a very interesting mix. We meet September through June, the second Tuesday of the month, 7 PM, at the Asia Pacific Cultural Center, 4851 South Tacoma Way, Tacoma, WA (except Dec. & June when we meet at another location). We usually have a demo or hands on project at every meeting. We have a group show at least once per year, and share other artist opportunities with our members. DATE OF NEXT MEETING: Tues. May 13th TIME: 7:00 - 9:00 PM MAY DEMO: Abstract acrylic artist, Marquita Hunt will give the May presentation. She was born and grew up in Tacoma, attended California College of Arts and Crafts, taken painting and drawing classes at Tacoma Community College, attended a few week-long workshops with Henry Stinson and a workshop from Vikki McMurray of Austin, Texas. For many years she worked as an Interior Designer at Greenbaums in Bellevue, Wa. She left after 8 years to start her own decorative painting business called Illusions. This required versatility-marbleizing faux finishing, and murals of all kinds. For the last year and a half she has spent painting once a week with William Turner as well as a handful of other artists. She currently shows her work at the Proctor Art Gallery in Tacoma. We extend an invitation to have all interested artists come to our meeting as a guest. Come visit us, we look forward to meeting you. Our meetings are always open to the public. _www.pacificgalleryartists.org_ (http://www.pacificgalleryartists.org/)
