  SANTA ROSA, Ca., –Feb. 14, 2002 – The National Association of Women Artists, Inc. is pleased to announce that Kathleen Elsey of Santa Rosa, Ca has had work accepted into its National Juried Exhibition of Painting at the Attleboro Art Museum in Attleboro, Massachusetts.
N.A.W.A., INC. based in New York City is a not-for-profit, non-political, member-supported organization of women in the fine arts. N.A.W.A., INC. was founded in 1889 by five innovative women seeking exhibition opportunities for gifted artists who had been denied participation in the male-dominated National Academy of Design. By 1930, membership had swelled beyond 1,000. Early annual exhibitions included the notable Rosa Bonheur, Mary Cassatt, Suzanne Valadon and Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney. As the organization grew, Louise Nevelson, Judy Chicago, Janet Fish, Miriam Schapiro, Marisol, Audrey Flack and many additional illustrious artists have been added to its membership. Most N.A.W.A., INC. members are listed in Who’s Who in American Art and are represented in museums, corporate collections and traveling exhibitions throughout the United States and abroad.
N.A.W.A. is proud to have found women artists whose names may not be familiar, yet whose work merits recognition. The Exhibition is open to the public from March 7 to April 20, 2002 at the Attleboro Museum, 86 Park Street, Attleboro, MA 02703.
Kathleen Elsey is a Santa Rosa plein air painter. Ms. Elsey is represented by Edmunds Gallery in Sonoma and the Marine Gallery in Kirkland, Washington. She currently has a solo show at the Marine Gallery in Kirkland, Washington and an upcoming solo show at Edmunds Gallery opening on May 10, 2002.
