UP FROM THE ARCHIVE: In 1993, WSW put out a xeroxed pamphlet ART CUT$ HERE’S HOW THEY AFFECT YOU to ask for community support and raise awareness about how federal and state funding cuts deeply impacted our programming during that period. Our founders stated that, “We have lost $35,000 in grants, and we anticipate losing another $10,000…WSW is alive. But each year is a challenge. We are the only women’s studio arts organization to survive the eighties, and we need your help to keep our programs vital and growing into the nineties.”

By reflecting on our organization’s history, we invite you to join us in our continued resilience, grounded in the same perseverance, being in service to women, trans, nonbinary, and genderfluid artists. Twenty years later, we are continuing to provide professional opportunities for artists at various stages of their careers and promote programs designed to stimulate public involvement, awareness, and support for the visual arts.
