"Claiming the Wall" 
Artist Reception 5-8pm | Free Event


 First Friday Gallery Opening
Come meet the artists at our First Friday Opening, Mar 6: 5-8pm

 
In celebration of Women’s History Month, “Claiming the Wall” presents an inspiring juried exhibition featuring 22 accomplished artists from Vashon Island and surrounding neighborhoods, including West Seattle, Tacoma/Olympia, and the Kitsap Peninsula. This regional showcase highlights the diversity of artistic voices and creative practices among members of Women Painters of Washington (WPW) who call this corner of the Pacific Northwest home.
 
In our Gallery Shop we will feature handcrafted jewelry by Stephanie Benson.
 
“Claiming the Wall” continues VCA’s longstanding tradition of dedicating our March gallery exhibition to women artists. Coinciding with International Women’s Day on March 8, the exhibition amplifies work that inspires, challenges, and enriches our communities. Rather than adhering to a specific visual theme, artists were invited to submit work that reflects their current artistic practice. The result is a wide-ranging presentation of contemporary painting, offering insight into the depth and breadth of work being created by WPW members today.
 
 
Also, come to our Celebration of International Women’s Day, Sunday March 8: 9am - 12noon
