Studio 30 meets from September through May, using a mixture of in-person sessions and the Zoom platform to connect, paint together, and conduct the meetings. Artist demonstrators are included in a majority of the monthly meetings.
Zoom meetings typically occur on the second Wednesday of each month from 7 – 9 pm. The in-person meetings are typically held on Saturdays.
Throughout the summer months, in lieu of club meetings, there are plein air painting gatherings and art postcard exchanges.
