Our vision is not limited to staging an exhibition. More important, is the community outreach that this project demands of AAWAA. Whether it’s workshops, artistic endeavors, lectures, panel discussions, online or one on one, we have seen A Place of Her Own inspire critical thinking. It has the power to grow confidence and develops community.
AAWAA is working on long term collaborations with API Legal Outreach and Asian Women’s Shelter to encourage their staff and selected clientele to participate alongside our artists. Our wish is to donate finished functional and decorative works from these exhibitions to the women and the shelters that would benefit and enjoy being supported by women artists in this way.
