History
Ten watercolor artists living in the Pikes Peak region of Colorado founded the Pikes Peak Watercolor Society in 1986 to promote excellence in the watercolor painting medium and to encourage artistic achievement in the community. They held their first exhibit at the Pikes Peak Center in Colorado Springs in March of 1988. Subsequent exhibitions have been held at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, the Sangre de Cristo Arts and Conference Center, the Gallery of Contemporary Art at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, the Tri-Lakes Center for the Arts, and others.

Mission
The Pikes Peak Watercolor Society promotes and encourages watercolor through its sponsorship of exhibitions, scholarships, workshops, and through its support of other local arts organizations and educational institutions.

Members
The PPWS has about 110 Signature and Associate members. Artists become signature members through the juried selection process that evaluates the artist's work, and qualified exhibition record. Associate membership is open to anyone interested in the promotion of watercolor art in the Pikes Peak region.

For more information about the show, please email Dennis Palsgrove or call Cottonwood Center for the Arts at (719) 520-1899.
