For centuries, the contributions of women to the fine arts were often relegated to the margins, their visibility clouded by systemic bias. While the art world has made strides toward equity, subtle glass ceilings remain. Women Painters of Washington (WPW) is one of the organizations working to elevate and empower women artists to reach new heights.<\/p>\n

This ongoing push for recognition finds its latest expression in Tieton, where Boxx Gallery is turning these challenges into a celebration of creative strength. For the month of February, Boxx is hosting \u201cSpoken in Color,\u201d featuring WPW Eastern Washington Chapter. Displayed is a vibrant and captivating exhibition of voices aiming to increase the visibility of our state\u2019s women artists. This powerful exhibition features 10 artists and 50 original works.<\/p>\n

WPW Eastern Chapter artists participating in this show are Sara Cate (Yakima), Janet Fagan (Mazama), Ana Gresham (Yakima), Nena Howell (Wenatchee), Judy Kalin (Moses Lake), T Kurtz (Spokane), Elizabeth Montes de Oca (Yakima), Megan Perkins (Spokane), Terri Rice (Richland), Darcie Case Roberts (Yakima) and Gayle Scholl (Yakima).<\/p>\n

We are a fully volunteer run organization and we all take great pride in the work and camaraderie of the WPW. This show brings fresh voices to the Yakima Valley art scene and they are joined by some of the region\u2019s stars. It will be a truly standout show!\u201d<\/p>\n
