FOR THE COMMUNITY:

SWS presents painting exhibits in public spaces throughout the year, including one annual show judged by a professional juror. Meetings for members include educational lectures and demonstrations by well-known artists. SWS's Art Angels program sends volunteers to teach art in regional elementary schools.  Each year, the SWS scholarship fund of $1500 per year is divided into three $500 scholarships offered to Washoe Elementary School Teachers to be used for classroom art supplies. 

 

FOR ARTISTS:
SWS offers member artists many opportunities to exhibit and sell work through local galleries, museums, and other venues. SWS hosts nationally renowned artists as workshop instructors who teach a wide range of subjects and methods. SWS members may borrow art books and videos from the SWS large lending library. SWS often sponsors many opportunities to meet and collaborate with fellow members.

 

SWS welcomes the public to all meetings, demos and exhibits
