The CTAA meets the second Thursday of each month in The Chisholm Trail Room at Ozona Bank in Bowie, Texas (1301 Hwy 59 N) - or at various locations announced in advance on this website and via a monthly email newsletter to our members.
A sketching session is held preceding each meeting at 5:30pm (unless indicated otherwise below) for all wishing to participate. Please bring your own drawing materials. (NEW FOR 2010: Both a live model and a still-life object will be made available for each sketching session.)
Each meeting typically begins at 7:00pm and is highlighted by a presentation or demonstration from a local area artist who specializes in a particular medium, subject, or style - or someone working in the field of art. Field trips in lieu of regular meetings are also a possibility, as was our special evening at The Kemp Center in Wichita Falls last year.
