Young Women's Curatorial Grant Committee

Kelly Hammargren, Judy Johnson-Williams, Priscilla Otani and Sandra Yagi have formed a committee to mentor the Berkeley Young Women's Art Collective, which has been selected to receive the 2014 Curatorial Grant. They welcome more committee members to help with preparation for their exhibition in November, helping to create a catalog, hang works in the gallery, manage the opening reception and other activities, and take down the exhibition.

NCWCA is looking to team up with other Bay Area non-profits to support their events or projects. In 2013, NCWCA members worked with Wings Learning Center to help them raise funds for children with autism. We also participated in Art Break Day with Oakland residents and had a table at the Women's Building's annual Celebration of
Craftswomen. Join the committee to evaluate what good works NCWCA should engage in this year.  To get involved, fill out the Committee Sign Up form below.
