We invite all artists from Alabama to submit small-scale works reflecting upon artistic and poetic imagination and how this relates to space, memory, and intimacy. The ALWCA is a chapter of the national Women's Caucus for Art organization. The Women's Caucus for Art was established in 1972 with the mission to create community through art, education, and social activism. Please consider entering your work and sharing our prospectus.
