Our Mission

Women in Art in Pennsylvania has been in the community for 7 years as a non profit organization. Through their art sales and fund raisers, WIAIPA raises money for domestic violence, women's health issues, abused women and children and brings awareness on these issues to the people of the community. Without your help we can not do what we do!!!!!!!!!

Our vision is to develop art in women and children in the community, to their fullest potential. Through this program we seek to bring out the desire of all who participate to express their creativity through art and to provide a wholesome past time, and encourage the appreciation of different forms of art.

Our goal is to donate a percentage of our profits to women & children's shelters in the area and to encourage the art ability in all of us by bringing art to parts of the community which may not otherwise have such opportunities. It's amazing to see what wonderful things can happen through art, if people are just given the chance to create. If you would like to be a part of this wonderful organization please email
Gloria - gloria11355@rcn.com or call 215-421-5644.

All artwork on this site is available through Gloria and WIAIPA's other artists and all are original pieces created by them.

The site will be updated monthly with new pieces and new artists.

"One of my favorite interviews, on CBS's The EARLY Show, was with Martina Navratilova. The conversation was about other great tennis players, and Billy Jean King was mentioned. Martina said that she had received the best advice of her career from Billy Jean when she overheard Martina being very negative about how badly the balls were bouncing on the court surface. That's when Billy Jean said to her, "Being negative about it won't change it... Champions Adjust."  Whether or not you consider yourself a champion does not matter... each and every one of us needs to acclimate to this type of mentality if we are to accept responsibility for our lives. You see, we are all CEO's of our own personal service organization. It doesn't matter what job position or title you hold, you are an independent contractor for the work that you are agreeing to do for the remuneration you receive. You have the power to leave,

 and... you have the power to stay and make adjustments! As you decide to simply "adjust," you will in fact be making a difference."  Mary Robinson Reynolds
