Excellence

A word about excellence..............

            "Perhaps there's a clue here to the real spirit - or essence if you will - of the Puget Sound Group. It obviously takes more than socializing or sharing a common interest to hold so many diverse individuals together for so many years, and there is the hard to define continuity of purpose that has not only survived, but is even now being passed on to a third generation of Northwest artists.
            Many old time members with national and international reputations and no real need to seek the approval of their peers will, in candid moments, admit they are motivated to retain their membership with the group primarily in hope of helping others as once they were helped."
                                                    Excerpt from the book "The First Fifty Years, 1928 to 1978", published by PSGNWP

In the years since 1978, this concept has generally come to be known by the term "Excellence".

Puget Sound Group members exhibit excellence constantly...in their work...in their enthusiasm...in their eagerness to mentor... and in their contributions to the art community. The age old ethic "if it is worth doing it is worth doing well" is alive and held in stewardship for future artist members and those supported by the generous contributions of this group.
