"Painting 4 Thursdays" beginning this Thursday, March 19, 2020

If you are one of those people who looked forward to creating painting(s) / drawings to share with Alla Prima Portland on Thursdays, we invite you to continue. There are two ways to share your work. Put your painting directly on our Facebook page and/or email it to allaprimaportland@gmail.com. As long as you get it to us by Thursday (noon) it will show up in our weekly blog post. You can add any description you'd like about the painting and we'll blog that also. (It will help if you include the hashtag #painting4thursdays to differentiate from regular facebook posts). So, we'll see you online....k? ! :)

Meetings cancelled (until further notice)

The Portland Public Schools have announced closure due to Coronovirus and following suit, all Alla Prima meetings are currently cancelled (until further notice). (French Quarter remains open for business), but is cancelling meetings and large events until further notice also).
Stay in touch on our Facebook page and paint plenty of paintings during this break; that way we will all have plenty to talk about when we get back together! Thank you everyone! :)
