The Connecticut Pastel Society is a statewide fine arts organization with a national outreach. CPS is funded and run by artists and their affiliates intent on increasing awareness of pastel as a fine art medium. CPS is now an organization with a tax-exempt status and therefore eligible to receive tax-deductible charitable contributions.
