Record Crowds, Powerful Voices: WIVA’s 2025 Women’s Exhibits Shine
What an incredible journey the 2025 Women in Art and 2025 Women in Photography exhibits have been! We’re still buzzing with the energy and creativity that filled the galleries this March to celebrate Women’s History Month. This year WIVA’s exhibitions were another resounding success, drawing record crowds and enthusiastic engagement for our largest women’s exhibits ever with over 100 local artists and photographers taking part, and it’s all thanks to the incredible talent and vision of these creative women and the unwavering support of our community.
A massive and heartfelt thank you goes out to each and every one of the phenomenal women creatives who shared their unique perspectives and captivating creations with us. Your diverse voices, expressed through a stunning array of mediums – from painting, watercolor and sculpture to photography, video and mixed media – created a truly enriching and thought-provoking experience for all who visited. Your passion and dedication shone through in every piece, and we were honored to showcase your work. We also want to thank all the new WIVA Members who exhibited their talents with us too! (All woman artists are invited to join our movement!)
The exhibition was a vibrant tapestry of artistic expression, sparking conversations, inspiring new ideas, and celebrating the invaluable contributions of women to the world of art and photography. We were thrilled to see over 400 guests at our opening receptions and their enthusiastic support. It was truly a testament to the power of women’s art and photography to connect and move us.
We also want to extend our sincere gratitude to the Lake Travis Community Library and Bee Cave Arts Foundation Hive Gallery, their dedicated staff and all the volunteers, whose hard work and dedication were instrumental in making this exhibition a reality. Your commitment to supporting women in the arts is deeply appreciated.
While the physical exhibitions may have closed at the end of March, the impact of the photography, art and the connections made will undoubtedly continue to resonate. We encourage you to visit the exhibits’ virtual galleries, follow the artists on social media, and stay tuned by subscribing for announcements about WIVA’s exciting future plans.
Thank you again to the incredible women artists, photographers and our wonderful community for making the Women in Art and Women in Photography exhibits such memorable and meaningful experiences. We look forward to continuing to champion and celebrate the vital role of women in the arts.
Warmly,
V.E.L. Dawson
