WPA / Utrecht Art Supplies Events

WPA has teamed up with Utrecht Art Supplies to bring you TWO fabulous member events in December:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wednesday, December 3, 6:30-8:00pm
at WPA (2023 Massachusetts Ave, NW)
Oil Paint Workshop (FREE- space is limited):

Utrecht's Resident Artist and Brand Manager will discuss the historical beginnings of oil color all the way up to modern day manufacturing. Participants will learn about the chemistry and coatings technology behind artists' oil colors, so by the end they will know how to evaluate oil color and its properties in order to make wise decisions in regards to archival art.

Color properties and hand mulling color demos will be explored and all are invited to participate. Technical questions are invited.

Space is limited and available on a first come first served basis (WPA members only). To sign up for this workshop, email Kristina at: kbilonick@wpadc.org

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Monday, December 8, 7:00-9:00pm
at Utrecht Art Supplies (1250 I Street, NW / corner of 13th and I)
Members Only Shopping Event!!

Just in time for the Holidays, Utrecht will hold an after-hours shopping event, exclusively for our members. On this night only, between 7-9pm, WPA members will have a 15% discount instead of the usual 10% WPA discount.

It is the perfect chance to get that bigger ticket item, stock up on your favorite supplies, or check out their holiday gift-making ideas.

Wine and refreshments will be served so it's also an opportunity to catch up with some of the other attending members and staff. Bring your WPA membership card or an ID for entry at the door.

RSVP appreciated but not required.
