ACHF Arts Access
This project will provide access to and build relationships with diverse groups by bringing together women farmers who tell their stories of struggles and successes to community members who purchase much of what they grow, through the arts. I will use attendance, community/farmer discussion or panel event, interviews and comments as well as a survey to measure the outcome of my project.
I combined my landscape and portrait skills finding that I developed a new way to tell stories though my paintings that is exciting to me and resonated with others including the women farmers I focused on.
