Welcome

Welcome to the Idaho Watercolor Society Website. What can we do with this site? Our newsletters will be archived here. You can view winning paintings from the last several shows, such as those shown here, under Gallery and you can have a mini slide show. While you are here be sure to check out the calendar- it can answer all your when-where-what questions. If you need to contact a representative or officer you will find contact information under Contacts. We have a list of shows and workshops in other areas (including contacts) in our Shows/Workshops section. We are changing the website often to try to keep you in touch with the latest information, so use the site often.
