When most other organizations are asking you to spend your hard earned money to spend even more later in the year, the PDPA is asking you to spend money to make more money and grow your business. The PDPA works on two fronts; one is to help the people within the industry through our initiatives and the other is to work on promoting decorative painting as a whole to new clients and other industries like the design, architectural and building trades.
Our local chapter focus is to get you in front of new customers and sell more jobs. In 2008, the PDPA Colorado chapter hosted our first professional decorative painters exhibition with brilliant success. Sheri Hunt, Colorado president, led the way with an amazing show of what decorative painting is really about.
Capitalizing on the Colorado chapterʼs momentum, the Texas chapter hosted a decorative painting exhibition at the Austin AIA headquarters under the leadership of
Catherine Oʼ Toole. With over 100 designers and Architects in attendance, members displayed their talents to the public and building trades communities. 2009 will bring more exhibitions and fundraisers designed to help our members find new clients and grow in their success as professional decorative painters.
