$200 STIPEND TO REPRESENT NCWCA AT THE 2016 WCA CONFERENCE IN DC

Picture
DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JANUARY 8, 2016. NCWCA is awarding a $200 stipend to a member to represent our chapter at the upcoming National WCA Conference in Washington DC. The conference will be held Feb 3-6, 2016 To apply, write not more than 500 words explaining why you should be awarded the stipend. Email your response to elizabethaddison@sbcglobal.net with "NCWCA Stipend" in the subject line. The awardee is expected to participate in all of the WCA events, sign up for a four-hour volunteer stint, represent our chapter at the chapter meeting on Thursday morning, and report back to the chapter on what they learned so that those who couldn't go get a taste of the fun & excitement. They are not required to attend the board meeting on Sunday, Feb 7 but may do so as an observer. 2016 NCWCA members are eligible to apply. To the extent possible, this stipend will be awarded to a member who has not previously represented our chapter at the annual conference. The deadline is Friday, January 8, 2016. Elizabeth Addison, Professional Development Chair, will announce the winner by January 15.

Inhabiting Blurred Divides: An Exhibition on Themes of Womanhood, Identity and Dualities

Picture
As young women and artists, we all struggle with what it means to be a woman in this society: How do we fit in our communities, in academic institutions, in the larger arts community, and in our personal relationships? How are we received as leaders and artists? How do other identifiers such as race, sexuality, or class intersect with our identities as women? How are we perceived in relationship to men?  How are we allowed to love, dream, create, inspire after a years of socialization?   This exhibition examines the fundamental nature of womanhood and aims to respond to these questions.  These works explore and question the dualities that seem to be inherent in female identity and the parameters that define womanhood in our society.  Our intended audience is all people of every age and gender.  We hope that other young women will identify with the struggles that inspire our art-making and that others will understand our perspectives we represent in our work and think critically about these themes.
