Women’s View 2022—a group art exhibition that recognizes, celebrates and honors women, non-binary and gender nonconforming artists who live/work in San Mateo County—is kicking off today at The Caldwell & Community Galleries, 400 County Center in Redwood City. It will run through April 29.
The 17th annual exhibition features the works of more than 70 artists in a variety of mediums, including painting, photography, charcoal drawing, mixed media, digital painting and yarn.
Organizers stated that, similar to their varied artistic mediums, the artists featured in the exhibition “represent a great diversity reflective of the larger San Mateo County community” and draw upon “a vast array of heritages, lived experiences and finely tuned imaginations.”
Alena Sauzade, gallery director and collections manager at San Jose State University, will serve as juror and select up to three $100 awards and three Honorable Mentions from the exhibition artists.
