ABOUT US
Welcome to the Ozark Pastel Society web page! We are a group of artists based in Northwest Arkansas, with members from the surrounding states. We work in soft pastels and promote the medium through exhibits, workshops and demonstrations.
We welcome new members. We meet four times a year, our dues are normally $25 per year, but since doing many meetings by Zoom because of the pandemic, dues this year are only $15, and OPS members receive our email newsletter and discounts on OPS sponsored shows.
For more information about OPS just email an inquiry to and we’ll reply as soon as possible.
Thank you for visiting and enjoying our pastel art! We'd love to have you join us for our meetings too.
Our Meetings
We normally meet 4 times a year in various places with a wide range of topics related to pastel painting.
When the covid-19 pandemic hit, we adapted and have done meetings via Zoom to keep us all in touch and inspired to keep doing our art.
Email us at to get info on the Zoom meetings.
