Welcome to the Pastel Society of Southern California’s 2026 exhibit

We are proud to present the 17th Annual Members’ Exhibition of the Pastel Society of Southern California, taking place for the first time at Destination: Art. The Pastel Society of Southern California (PSSC) seeks to bring together pastel artists from Southern California and worldwide for camaraderie and collaboration; to educate the public and promote pastel as a fine art medium through local shows and international exhibitions; and to foster artistic excellence through public demonstration, workshops, paint-outs, critiques, and exchange of technical and product information. We invite you to enjoy these beautiful paintings in person at the gallery or here online where most can be purchased.
