About Us

Mission Statement

The Women’s Arts Association is a vibrant and responsive organisation committed to addressing isolation and exclusion experienced by women in the arts and the wider community. WAA works in partnership with practitioners, communities and funding bodies to develop accessible, high quality, creative opportunities for women, celebrating diversity and equality across all art forms.

The Association began as the Arts Discussion Group within the Women’s Committee of the South Glamorgan County Council, in 1984. The group became the South East Wales Women’s Arts Association and a registered charity in 1997.

WAA currently has 9 voluntary trustees:

CHAIR Gwyneth Price
VICE CHAIR Jacqueline Alkema
TREASURER Tracy Kearns
SECRETARY Dilys Jackson

COMMITTEE MEMBERS
