    This year’s exhibition will be at the William Benton Museum of Art at the University of Connecticut, a fitting venue for showcasing the works selected from artists across the United States.

    Connecticut Women Artists (CWA) was established in 1929 by twenty women artists from the Hartford area who wanted to create exhibition opportunities for fellow women artists at a time when there were very few. CWA is a statewide organization of highly accomplished artists working in various media, including painting, drawing, printmaking, mixed-media, sculpture, assemblage, photography, ceramics, glass, and fiber. Currently, CWA membership numbers well over 200 outstanding women artists from the state of Connecticut. Now entering our ninety-sixth year we continue to promote, support, and mentor all women artists offering three exhibitions each year. CWA is honored and pleased to hold our 2025 National Open Juried Exhibition this year at The William Benton Museum of Art, juried by Deanna Fitzgerald, Dean of the School of Fine Arts at the University of Connecticut.

    Exhibition Dates: May 27 through July 27, 2025.
