Description
Join us to celebrate the opening of Women to Watch: A Book Arts Revolution and meet the artists & curator.
Women to Watch is a long-running international programme initiated by the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington DC. It champions women artists at pivotal stages in their careers by providing museum visibility on an international platform.
The theme of the 2026 Women to Watch exhibition is book arts, and will showcase the work of five contemporary women book artists: artists whose practices are rooted in the material, conceptual, and imaginative possibilities of the book. Following the exhibition, one artist will be chosen to represent the UK in the NMWA’s international Women to Watch exhibition in Washington DC in 2027, putting UK women artists firmly on the international stage.
The programme has an impressive track record: Rose Wylie was one of the earliest UK participants, and her participation in Women to Watch is widely recognised as a key moment in her rise to international prominence.

Wine will be served, as well as wonderful cocktails by Mezcal Reina.
Fundraising vernissage tickets: £50.
