The Wright State University’s Women’s Center and YWCA Dayton presents the 10th Anniversary show of Women in Art: Unheard Voices. Since its inception in 2000, Women in Art: Unheard Voices has mentored and showcased the work of over forty women who had not previously shown a body of their work publicly.
To celebrate its 10th year, Women in Art: Unheard Voices has invited these past women artists to return, reflect on their participation, and reconnect with their fans. In addition, the combined show will feature the works of new artists; More than Just (Phillithia Charlton & Erika Delgado), Lauryn Jones, Rebecca Strobridge, and Frances Turner. All of the artist’s work will be showcased in the Robert and Elaine Stein Galleries, located in the Creative Arts Center on Wright State University’s campus, March 16-20 between 10 a.m.- 4 p.m.
Join us in celebration at the closing reception, Pretty (that is, artistically compelling), Big (featuring over 20 artists using various media), Art (and a lot of it) Party, on March 20, 6-10 p.m!
Meet the artists from throughout the years, and congratulate the new 2009 artists. With food, friends, art, and merriment, the Pretty Big Art Party is not to be missed!
