About

Arkansas Pastel Society is a regional artists’ society that meets in Little Rock, Arkansas. We met in February of 2004 to organize and now have more than 60 active members.

This Society came about when a group of pastel artists saw the need for a centrally located regional society to promote pastels as a medium and as a means of networking with other pastel artists.

The APS welcomes all artists interested in pastel (soft and oil). Dues are $25 a year for members and $10 for students (high school and full time college students). Click here for membership application.
