The Pastel Society of America (PSA) is the oldest pastel society in America, founded in 1972 by Flora B. Giffuni. It is largely responsible for the current renaissance of pastels in American art, and its annual exhibitions at The National Arts Club in New York are the premier event for pastel artists in the country and abroad.
With over 1,000 artist members throughout the US and abroad, PSA encourages artistic advancement through prestigious awards distributed during its annual exhibitions. The society offers three levels of juried membership - Associate, Signature, and Master Pastelist - and provides a forum for the exhibition of works by the most accomplished pastel artists, showcasing their technical acumen and creative use of pastel techniques.
