ABOUT THE PROGRAM
As part of AAWAA’s mission, we demand visibility of Asian Pacific American women artists in American art history. Through the cultivation of curators who focus on Asian American women in the arts. Our Emerging Curators Program (ECP) offers dynamic opportunities for visionary and motivated emerging curators. AAWAA offers valuable, hands-on experience developing, producing and promoting innovative exhibitions that expand and deepen the awareness and understanding of Asian American women in the arts.
AAWAA facilitates the personal and professional growth of emerging curators by providing mentorship, guidance, and support in producing socially conscious art exhibitions in traditional and non-traditional spaces throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.
ECP began in 2011 when AAWAA was offered an alternative exhibition space at a local art supply store. The program has grown into a fellowship that has 15 graduates and has produced 12 total art exhibitions.
