About us
Peninsula Outdoor Painters (POPs) was established in 1977 and we welcome painters at every skill level. Our events are on Tuesdays at the same location for two consecutive weeks. Starting this year, we will also repeat some of our events on weekends to accommodate members who cannot paint on weekdays.
