*APAP is testing out a series of NO-HOST paint outs. Meaning that, no APAP member is designated to attend as a host. The idea is to fill our calendar with two, unique paint outs per month that showcase the beauty and diversity of the Arizona landscape including and beyond the Phoenix metropolitan area. These locations all been previously visited and painted by APAP members.
