President's Message

Welcome to the New Jersey Water Color Society's website. Our organization is comprised of more than 400 talented professional and non-professional artists from all over the state of New Jersey. Some of our members are among the country's finest watercolorist. We are very proud of our roster of elected and associate members. Many of whom have further distinguished themselves having been featured in various art magazines and technique book publications as well as called upon to judge national exhibits.

The aims of the NJWCS as put down in its constitution are to exhibit watercolor paintings of professional quality; to increase and expand opportunities for New Jersey watercolor artists, and to promote public interest in watercolor paintings. Our annual Open Juried Exhibition is offered each year for residents of New Jersey. Past exhibition venues include The Monmouth Museum, The Noyes Museum, The Montclair Museum, The Morris Museum of Arts and Sciences, The Ridgewood Art Institute, and other prominent locations throughout the state. Featured on this site are some more recent artworks from our previous Open Shows. Additional exhibition opportunities are offered exclusively for both Associate and Elected Members to show their work. The Elected Member Show is often in conjunction with our Annual Meeting and dinner.

For the most recent Open Show prospectus you can download here. Click on Calendar of Events for an overview of what's planned ahead. We are also working on broadening the opportunities for our artist to get together.
