To Support Student Artists with Scholarships and Awards
To Provide Grants to High School Art Teachers for Classroom Supplies
To Share The Visual Arts with Our Community
WE RAISE FUNDS TO SUPPORT HIGH SCHOOL ART BY GRANTING AWARDS AND GIVING SUPPLIES TO TALENTED ART STUDENTS, DESERVING ART TEACHERS AND ART PROGRAMS.
WOMEN IN THE VISUAL ARTS WAS FOUNDED BY A SMALL, ENTHUSIASTIC GROUP OF WOMEN IN 1989 TO SERVE ADDITIONAL COMMUNITY NEEDS IN ART AS A 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATION.
WITVA has been a welcoming organization for women artists for over thirty-five years! Through the years, we have given programs, gatherings to our members and gifts to deserving students, schools and art teachers throughout Southeast Florida.
For the next few years, WITVA will be using their 501c3 status as a charitable organization and continue to give gifts and scholarships where deserving. However, other programs will be discontinued until we have new leadership, either an individual or a team has been effective. A new leader or new leaders can determine the size and scope of their position.
If anyone is interested in applying for a leadership role, please contact Susan Chorney Lewine and Susantimothychorney@gmail.com.

Our nonprofit organization has also committed to supporting ESE (Exceptional Student Education) teachers who incorporate art curriculum into their lessons, as many of these students learn in different ways and the Arts are one of them. Please consider giving to our awards fund so we may carry on our mission. Thank you!
