ECOAA East Central Ontario Art Association I've been a member of ECOAA for some 40 years. The association has a large membership made up of artist working in all mediums. The majority of their activities are centered in the Belleville, Peterborough to Markham areas plus other areas in Eastern Ontario. Their specialty is well-organized plein air weekends with accommodation and studio space provided. Included are painting demonstrations by accomplished artists and instruction in some cases. It's a great way to learn more and meet interesting people. You must be an ECOAA member to participate. Charlie Spratt, ECOAA Ottawa Rep For more information see https://www.ecoaa.ca
