FOUNDED 1900

The Philadelphia Water Color Society

was founded in 1900 as the Philadelphia Water Color Club by  a small group of dedicated artists working in aqueous media. The Club developed its own strong exhibits, usually held at the Academy of Fine Arts, to counter the prevailing dominant influence of oils and sculpture. Club exhibits now occur in many locations, and include works on paper in addition to watercolor. Chartered in 1924, the Club now consists of more than 600 local. national, and international members, both artists and supporters of the arts.
