Competition is open to female visual artists residing in Canada.

The Women’s Art Museum provides a platform to share and preserve art work made by women.  Through out history women’s art has been marginalized, prompting museums around the world to address the situation to cultivate an appreciation for female culture. Free public access gives Canadian women a place to showcase stories behind their heritage.  WAM gives voice to women of varied genres.
