Join/Renew CPSA (online only) – Colored Pencil Society of America

2025 CPSA Membership

Colored Pencil Society of America (CPSA) is a nonprofit organization working to promote colored pencil as a fine art medium. We welcome you to join us! CPSA membership is open to individuals 18 years of age or older, residing in any country. Artists at every skill level are welcome—we do not "jury in" members.

We are now accepting dues for the 2025 membership year.

The CPSA membership year is from Nov. 1 to Oct. 31 of the following year. Please note that dues are not prorated—the full amount is expected no matter when you pay. If you are joining for the first time on or after May 1, your membership will be valid through October 31 of the next calendar year.

Your dues must be paid for the current membership year in order to receive our magazine, To The Point and qualify for other membership benefits. IMPORTANT DEADLINES:
October 31 - to receive the November To The Point and a lower entry fee for CPSA exhibitions.
December 31 - to be listed in the CPSA membership directory.
March 31 - to receive the May To The Point.
