Society of Decorative Painters

In 2008, the Society was responsible for finding an artist to paint Christmas ornaments for use in the White House.

[1] In 2009, SDP members helped produce holiday decorations for use in the Renwick Gallery at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.

The process requires an application, entry fee, and one project submitted for the portfolio.

[citation needed] The society has a code of ethics members agree to follow.

[3] SDP Chapters[4] promote creativity at the local level by organizing classes, seminars, 'paint-ins', and community service[5][6] activities.
