Professional Organization for Women in the Arts

POWarts, the Professional Organization of Women in the Arts, was founded in 2008 to champion the professional lives of women in the art world.

By offering an active calendar of events, panel discussions, and mentoring opportunities, POWarts helps women learn, connect, and build their careers.

POWarts believes that generosity and leadership can, and should, go hand in hand. Our programming stems from the knowledge that art and business are not separate; rather, understanding business is vital to creating spaces for art, and women, to thrive.

POWarts is a 501C3 nonprofit organization run by a volunteer steering committee.

Membership is open to women and allies of all genders who are committed to the advancement of professional women across the arts.
