Mary Krueger - The Versatility and Professionalism of Colored Pencils

Our next meeting is on April 22, 2025 at 6:30pm.  


Mary Mossing Krueger is a Toledo area artist who has enoyed creating since she was a child.  She went to the University of Toledo, earning a BFA degree, majoring in drawing & printmaking, with a minor in painting.  She worked at the Toledo Museum of Art as an assistant to the Curator of Graphic Arts for a decade.  She currently is an active member of the Athena Art Society, the oldest Women's Art Organization in the U.S.  Mary also belongs to the Colored Pencil Society of America and the Detroit Chapter of The Colored Pencil Society.  She has been juried into many local, regional and International exhibitions.  Additionally, she has traveled with a six person team that mentored women artists in Tanzania, Africa.


Mary has many accolades under her belt and is coming to share her knowledge and experience of Colored Pencil Art with us.

She will bring prodcts and exmples for a brief presentation that promotes the versatility of colored pencils as a viable art form to all professional art establishments and to the general public.


Our meetings are on  fourth Tuesday of each month  at the United Way Building, 216 North Monroe Street, Monroe, MI  48162, and free to the public.  (no meetings in June and December)
