Hello Midway Art,


Next Meeting


Wednesday, May 21, 6:00 pm

Kwani Winder

at the MAA Studio in Midway Town Hall



Kwani Povi Winder is a young artist with a passion for learning and creating. She graduated with a BFA in oil painting from BYU-Idaho in 2013 and has been painting ever since. She calls herself a stay-at-home artist as she is always creating with her daughters at her side.


Kwani’s paintings are characterized by deep emotions and vibrant colors. Her subject matters primarily include figures and landscapes. Her work is heavily influenced by being an enrolled member of the Santa Clara Pueblo Tewa Tribe. Kwani’s work often contains spiritual and reverent undertones as she uses art to further understand and deepen her relationship with her creator. She resides in Southeast Idaho with her husband and two daughters.


This meeting will be in person at the MAA Studio, and via Zoom - Click HERE to join the meeting on May 21st at 6:00 pm Utah time.

Willing to host an artist?

We will host many visiting artists in Heber Valley during Wasatch Plein Air Paradise, June 21-July 5. Some have asked about the possibility of staying with local families instead of at hotels or resorts. If you have any extra space and would be willing to host an artist, please let us know at MidwayArtAssociation@gmail.com

PURCHASE AWARDS

If so, sponsoring a Purchase Award at Wasatch Plein Air might be for you. Sponsors commit early for the right to select any painting of their choosing before the event is open to the public. As a bonus, sponsors have first chance to purchase any other paintings in the competition.
