ABOUT AWA
|
|
The
Associated Women
in the Arts
was founded in 1980 and is a professional art organization
comprised of women in Southern Louisiana who specialize in a
variety of visual art forms. The Mission Statement of
AWA is to advance the causes of women artists by creating
opportunities for them to exhibit and discuss their work.
In doing so, the organization will additionally help to
broaden the cultural base of the area and assist the cause
of art throughout the state.
Women interested in the purposes of the AWA may become
General Members by application to the membership committee
with a current member as a sponsor. This committee
will present applications to the Executive Board for voting
purposes each April and letters of approval or denial will
be mailed after that time. Membership requires the
annual payment of dues, attendance to a minimum of four (4)
membership meetings within the calendar year and must
actively participate on at least one committee per year.
Other membership categories available are Exhibiting
Membership, Exhibiting Sustainer Membership and
Auxiliary/Supporting Membership. Please contact a
current member for additional information on all categories
of membership. |
