PAA artists from United Cerebral Palsy of the Northbay 9/12/19 will be hosting an “Inspired by Whiskey Painters of America” workshop at Maria Lewis’s studio. Marti visited this exquisite traveling exhibit at Cuyahoga Valley Art Center in Ohio and thought it would be fun for PAA do our own exhibit that will be shown in the Gallery at the Open Studio, the art gallery established at UCP/PADS, 1301 A Rand At, Petaluma thanks to a generous grant from PAA.
The workshop will be held at Maria’s studio will have space for 4 PAA artists from UCP/OADS and 4 additional spaces for more PAA artists. The seats will be filled on a first come/first served basis.

The following is from the Whiskey Painters of America’s website:
“A WHISKEY PAINTING is a miniature watercolor (4”x 5” max. image) painted by a bona-fide member of the WHISKEY PAINTERS OF AMERICA (WPA). The WPA, formed in the late 1950s has a limited membership of 150. An artist must be sponsored by an existing member. " A genuine Whiskey Painting consists of painting a miniature piece of art no larger than 4 X 5" with watercolor by dipping your brush in some form of alcoholic spirits,.... then possibly sipping the alcohol, thereby enhancing the painting experience.
Whiskey paintings have been exhibited in many national shows across the nation. At this time, WPA has 2 annual shows...one in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio in April [It's 31st year], and one in Augusta, Georgia Sept.-Oct...[it's 9 Th year] . Other shows have been held in Commercial Galleries and Art Museums across the nation.. Paintings generally sell from a minimum of $ 75. to as high as $1500., with an average typically between $ 150. and $ 300.
The Whiskey Painters of America is the most unique and exclusive miniature painting society in the world with a set limit of 150 members [by charter]....To become a member, an applicant must have a current Bona-Fide member of the WPA as sponsor. At this time the roster is full and applications are not being taken”

Copperfields PAA Window Display 2019: Copperfield’s would still like PAA to exhibit during our scheduled time, Sept 2-27, 2019. Please email submissions by the end of August. We will need selected artwork framed, wired and labeled and ready to hang. Please do not submit sleeved work. Your paintings and sculptures need to be delivered to her by August 23rd. To make drop off arrangements, see the emails we've sent out for details. If you are submitting multiple pieces, please indicate your 1st, 2nd, & 3rd choices. The number of total entries will determine how much space is available per artist. PAA’s Piano #6 is on display on Kentucky Street. Maria will contact Petaluma Pete to see if he will play during our Copperfields Exhibit. The PAA piano was selected as the best and favorite entry by Petaluma!
July General Meeting: We had a stimulating conversation about revitalizing Art in the Park for 2020. All members who were present contributed to the list of possibilities. We wanted to get back to our mission statement of providing scholarships or awards to students engaged in the field of visual arts. Having the schools involved would be a great way to make this a family friendly community event. Some of the ideas suggested were: having a coloring contest and/or student art projects with cash awards, give participating schools and SRJC students their own booths, community service hours for high school students to work at interactive booths like rock painting, temporary tattoos, etc., some food vendors and a “non-alcoholic” drink mixologists, and a voter registration booth.
PAA extends a huge thank you to Art in the Park Chairs Maria Lewis and Connie Heizer for all the work they had already done in preparation for this year’s event, and for all of the time they have spent undoing what they had so competently done. PAA thanks them for their continued willingness to take on the leadership for our 2020 Art in the Park. Maria will email dates of upcoming planning meetings for members who are interested in joining the 2020 PAA Art in the Park Planning Committee.
Other Event Possibilities:
● PAA might want to entertain the idea of having a Pop Up Show. It is an impromptu afternoon/evening event where we would show our art- on sidewalk easels or in shops. We could have a mixologist and make it a market like environment.
● New member, Alva Alexiades ,shared she has done the training for Public Community Access. She has done 7 documentaries. They are shown all around the Bay Area. It was suggested we pursue the possibility of creating PAA Documentary.
● PAA could create a Facebook Live Video-livestreaming
If any of these ideas sound like they are right up your alley to organize, please let the Board know and we’ll set up a time to meet and see what’s possible.

Art in the Park Cancellation:
Two weeks ago, it was brought to our attention that the City of Petaluma double booked Walnut Park on September 29, 2019 and will not be able to honor our reservation. At this late point in the year the PAA Board has decided it isn’t feasible to continue to plan Art in the Park for 2019, and that this year’s event should be cancelled. If you have already paid your booth fee for 2019 a refund check will be issued and sent to you the first week of July.
We are very sorry to do this and know that this will be a disappointment for many of you, as it was for the board. This was not an easy decision to make and one we’ll strive to never repeat.
We are making every effort to make the 2020 Art in the Park the best event possible for patrons and vendors alike, and have already begun our preparations - including bringing in more booths and activities. We encourage you to join us in making these decisions and are welcoming your input to make it a success. And look for our save the date announcement and event information for 2020, which we will send out in October 2019.
We encourage you to attend our July 13th quarterly meeting at 10:00 a.m. to join in the conversation.
Once again we apologize for having to cancel this years event. Yours truly,
PAA Board and Art in the Park Committee

Art in the Park Cancellation:
Two weeks ago, it was brought to our attention that the City of Petaluma double booked Walnut Park on September 29, 2019 and will not be able to honor our reservation. At this late point in the year the PAA Board has decided it isn’t feasible to continue to plan Art in the Park for 2019, and that this year’s event should be cancelled. If you have already paid your booth fee for 2019 a refund check will be issued and sent to you the first week of July.

Planning Meeting Review: We had our planning meeting on January 19th.
The following are the outcome of the discussions that took place. Numbers 1 & 2 were voted on and confirmed by the members present:
PAA’s Purpose (as stated in our Bylaws):
PAA will provide activities to promote the appreciation of visual art in Petaluma.
PAA will provide scholarships or awards, if funds are available, to students engaged in the field of visual arts.
PAA will provide a supportive fellowship that motivates and encourages its members to develop and expand their skills and appreciation in the field of visual arts.
With keeping our purpose in mind we decided at the Planning Meeting to create monthly PAA Community Activities to fulfill on the portion of our bylaws as stated above.
The PAA Board cannot do this alone. We are encouraging members to become more active by; participating in and to help with providing activities and a supportive fellowship to our artist community.
Community Events:
Monthly PAA Community Activities will take place every month. There is no limit to how many activities can be planned each month and they can be planned by any PAA member.
The more activities provided the more choices members have to participate in.
The member(s) who creates the event will be in charge of handling all the details of the event and will be the contact point for all inquiries and sign-ups.
These events will be posted on our website, PAA Newsletter (if submitted on time), Facebook, and email blasts will go out to members with information on how members can participate. We encourage members to bring a guest with them to all events to expose them to PAA and art.
These activities/events can be anything from:
a.) Visiting galleries, museums and attending PAA members shows.
b) Outdoor painting/drawing events, art critique support groups
c) Social events to get to know each other and collaborate on
PAA membership shows ideas.
d) It can also be an announcement about upcoming shows members can participate in.
e) Invitation to members about your own show and when the show reception will be so members can support you by attending.
f)Going on an Art Trails or Open Studios group tour and much, much more!!
.
