From the organizers:

Both AWA and the Booth Museum are very excited to present this exhibition. The caliber of work included in this show is incredible and we are pleased to share it with the public.

The Booth Museum hosted an AWA exhibition in 2014 and acquired numerous works from the show for their permanent collection, including paintings by Krystii Melaine (WA) and Nancy Boren (TX). Museum acquisitions of works by women artists is an important part of AWA’s 25 in 25 mission to address the lack of women artists in museum collections; estimated to be as low as 3-5%.
