The NAWA PR Committee, co-chaired by Jen Haefeli and Rhian Swain, is working hard to provide NAWA members with up-to-date information on news, events, exhibitions, and opportunities available to them. PR works closely with the Executive Team, the Exhibition Committee, the Membership Committee, NAWA’s magazine, NAWA NOW, and our weekly newsletter, This Week With NAWA.

This is an exciting time to be a member of NAWA. The PR Committee is dedicated to sharing your work. We work synergistically to celebrate the talent of our NAWA membership, engage with audiences in communities of the galleries we partner with, and promote your talent, offering you more opportunities to reach a wider collector base.

The PR Committee creates the visual brand and voice of NAWA. Our campaigns are intended to reflect your energy and the passion we all have for this organization. The PR Committee is responsible for creating graphics, managing social media campaigns, developing advertising, drafting press releases, and producing printed materials. We strive to maintain the roots of our foundation while striking a balance with modernization.

We have increased our online viewership this year. Our campaigns have improved the number of non-members experiencing NAWA member work. We are on the right track, and we will continue to amplify our outreach and work hard to meet our goals of increasing our visibility, promoting you and your work, and bringing awareness of your talents to a wider audience.

We are proud of the work that we do. If you are interested in working with the PR Committee, please let us know. We welcome your participation!
