137th Annual Awards Appeal 2025-26

Remember and Honor a Special Person with a NAWA Award

This is an opportunity from the National Association of Women Artists, Inc, to our membership and supporters to honor, thank and/or memorialize a special person, family member, or friend. Your award will create and establish a legacy of your honored person, and at the same time you will be rewarding a female artist for her exceptional work.

To sponsor an award:

Please fill out the form below. Once the information and payment are received, an award in this person’s honor will be created, and you will receive a tax donation letter thanking you for your generous remembrance.
After the award is given out, you will be sent the name of the artist who received it and the name of the exhibition. Your name, and the name of the recipient artist will also be included in the NAWA Annual Catalog. Please feel free to send a short explanation of why you are honoring this person, and/or something about them.
