Watercolorists Unlimited is a group of approximately 15 artists who meet monthly to critique assigned projects and to plan exhibits. We show, as a group, several times a year and also organize a large annual show and sale. We are always looking for new opportunities and new members.

While the meetings are informal and friendly, the purpose is to critique works in progress and to set up challenges. The group meets either on in members’ homes or at the Cranbury Public Library on a rotating basis on the fourth Tuesday of the month at noon. The meetings start with lunch, followed by a business meeting and then the critique. Members bring their own bag lunch and the host furnishes coffee and tea. Members must live within driving distance of each other in the Princeton/Cranbury area. On an exception basis, a member may be accepted who lives outside these parameters. In such instance, the member shall agree to co-host one meeting each year with a member who lives within the stated geography.

Our process of selecting new members is this:

If you wish to apply for membership a current member will act as your sponsor and will present five examples of your watercolors, along with your biography, which shall include your art education and exhibitions, if any, at the next regular meeting for review. These can be in the form of either original matted watercolors, digital files (jpegs) or printed reproductions. Two original matted paintings are preferred and the rest can be digital or printed. After review, if the group agrees to extend an invitation to you to join us, we will invite you to our next meeting where you will have the opportunity to get to know us. We will also let you know the “subject of the month” for that month’s meeting and would expect you to participate in the critique session. After the meeting you should let your sponsor know whether or not you’ve decided to accept the invitation to join us.
