Championing women through the arts

The National Museum of Women in the Arts (NMWA), located in Washington, DC, advocates for better representation of women artists and serves as a vital center for thought leadership, community engagement, and social change. NMWA addresses the gender imbalance in the presentation of art by bringing to light important women artists of the past while promoting great women artists working today.

The New York Committee of NMWA is part of a network of 27 committees throughout the US and World. The New York Committee is a volunteer organization that supports and extends the goals of NMWA. The Committee conducts local programs designed to further membership, development, fundraising, educational and exhibition objectives of NMWA, thereby broadening NMWA’s base of support throughout the world and allowing NMWA to be a truly national and international institution.
