Welcome to District Chapter 212
Phoenix and Tucson 

Hello, and welcome! Our group has over 70 members and we are growing!

With a range of art styles and experience, we love to work in colored pencils and inspire each other.  We are part of the national non-profit organization, the Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA).  

We are honored to show our work in galleries across the country.
All are invited to join our chapter.
