The Lakeway Painters
Many years ago, after an inspiring watercolor class by Johnnie Fields, a well-known Lakeway artist, a group of his students enthusiastically established The Lakeway Painters which continues to grow and thrive today. Each Wednesday, The Lakeway Painters’ club gets together to paint in a supportive environment and have a friendly critique of their members’ art. Bring your artwork and supplies and meet others who like to express creatively with watercolors, acrylics, collages and more. The Lakeway Painters meet every Wednesday from 9:30 am-11:30 am. They also have an annual art sale each fall. Lakeway Activity Center membership is required to participate. If interested, email Anna Thiele at fallingintoart@yahoo.com.
