Welcome to the web site of the Pastel Society of Tampa Bay

Our mission is to educate the artist and the public about pastel painting while promoting interest and enjoyment of the medium. We encourage artistic growth through education and sharing.

Each year we sponsor a juried and judged show with awards, Possibilities in Pastel. In addition, as the opportunity presents itself, the group exhibits in other venues around the Tampa Bay area. The goal of our meetings is to share useful information about the use of pastel and art in general

Possibilities in Pastel V with Doug Dawson at Dunedin Fine Art Center concluded on May 14th. Click here to see the winners.

We are a member in good standing with the International Association of Pastel Societies
