At the May 2011 meeting we introduced our proposal for creating local "colored pencil circles" (CPCs) under the Portland DC 201 umbrella for our artists who live more than an hour from the Wilsonville meetings. We'll continue to talk more about CPCs at future meetings. Download the PDF

DC 201 Members Accepted to International Show
District Chapter 201 was the very first district chapter, also formed in 1990 under the national organization.
Welcome to the CPSA District Chapter 201 website
It's a special opportunity!
Would you like the chance to see and photograph the 50 different species of Oregon raptors (hawks, eagles, falcons, kites, Osprey, owls, and vultures)? This is your opportunity. Take as many photos as you like (flash is fine, if you wish). You can also draw or just observe.
At noon and 2 p.m. there are "Handler Talks" where one or more birds are brought out, and a short talk is given. On the day of our visit, our own chapter president (and ornithologist), Dan Gleason, will be giving those talks.
There's a $7.00 admission fee ($6.00 for 65+) you'll need to mail in advance (see the meetings page). We'll meet at a nearby middle school at 10:00 a.m. to carpool to the center, which has very limited parking. Learn more
Congratulations to these six members of Portland DC 201, whose work is accepted
to the CPSA 20th Annual International Exhibition
