Members of the Upper Hudson Valley Watercolor Society have put together yet another breathtaking exhibit featuring 42 watercolors created by 25 artists. Viewers will enjoy the versatility of watercolor, from traditional to contemporary, from soft to vibrant. The UHVWS was formed in 1989 with approximately 80 members from Warren, Washington and Saratoga counties but also Vermont, Connecticut and Florida. Membership is not juried and includes all abilities. Newcomers are welcome. The Society’s meetings are held the first Monday of each month except July and August at LARAC’s Lapham Gallery in Glens Falls. Activities include painting sessions, lectures, demonstrations, group critiques and trips to museums. The group supports the efforts of its members by advertising their accomplishments in the monthly newsletter, attending receptions and networking.
