We are pleased to announce the release of “What Do

We are pleased to announce the release of “What Does It Mean To Mend?” by Stella Nall @stella.nall This publication is a perfect-bound book featuring a risograph-printed interior, a letterpress-printed, handmade recycled paper cover individually hand-beaded by Nall.

Written over the span of a decade, “What Does It Mean To Mend?” by Nall moves through moments of joy and sorrow, tenderness and loss, humor and quiet reflection. Informed by the history of her ancestors and her own experiences navigating the world as a queer mixed-race Apsáalooke (Crow) woman, Nall’s illustrated poems trace a journey of processing personal, cultural, and creative experiences, working towards a sense of self-understood wholeness. The poems are rooted in memory, family, and the rhythms of everyday life. Her work also engages intergenerational trauma inflicted by assimilative boarding schools, their impact on her people, family, and life. A direct outcome for Nall and her brother was that they were not raised as fluent speakers of the Apsáalooke language, which motivated her to continue speaking, learning, and weaving it into her creations.

This publication was funded with the generous support of Bainbridge Island Museum of Art @bimuseum.of.art through the BIMA Artist’s Book Residency Grant for Indigenous Artists.

We are pleased to announce Women’s Studio Workshop

We are pleased to announce Women’s Studio Workshop has received generous support from the Ruth Foundation for the Arts @ruthfoundationforthearts in an expanded three-year Core Granting program and will receive $150,000 over three-years.

As a national program, Ruth Arts Core Grant provides a snapshot of the current cultural landscape giving insights into the strategic, imaginative, and critical ways organizations are approaching their work today. Acting Director Natalie Renganeschi says, “Multi-year support from Ruth Arts has provided us with essential stability, allowing us to plan ambitiously and invest in artists and staff. This deepens the impact of our programs over time, enables us to respond thoughtfully to the evolving needs of our community, and strengthens our ability to amplify the voices of women, trans, and nonbinary artists.”

Not unlike today, 47-years ago, in 1979, inflation rocked WSW. The studio rental fees had a .25 cent increase, raising the hourly facility rental to $1.50. 😮
