IUPAT LOCAL #157

Painters Decorators and Paperhangers Local Union #157 was chartered on December 26, 1906 by The Brotherhood of Painters Decorators and Paperhangers of America. 

Still located in Peoria, Illinois we are known today as Painters and allied trades Local # 157, an affiliate of Painters District Council # 30 of the International Union of Painters and Allied Trades. 

We are a true “Mixed” Local.  Along with Painters and Dry-Wall Finishers our Allied trades include Glaziers, Sign & Display workers, Outdoor Advertising workers, and Decoration & Display workers. 

Our current membership is 360 strong with a contractor base of 35, covering 18 counties in central Illinois.  Our District Council is over 3200 members strong, covering 29 counties in central and northern Illinois with a contractor base of over 600. 

Local 157 continues to be a strong and growing organization providing employment, health care, and retirement benefits to its members and helping to make our area a beautiful place to live and raise our families.
