Women's Contemporary Art Show

 

The Women’s Contemporary Art Showcase, presented by the Arts Council of Kern, is a celebration of creativity and talent, featuring the work of notable women artists from across Kern County. This inspiring gallery exhibition, held inside the Arts Council of Kern’s building, highlights the depth and diversity of artistic expression within our community. Running from November 8, 2024, to January 16, 2025, the showcase invites visitors to experience a stunning array of works that reflect the unique perspectives and stories of women artists. From bold contemporary pieces to deeply personal narratives, this exhibition is a testament to the transformative power of art and its ability to connect, inspire, and empower.

Arts Council of Kern Gathering of Lights Closing Reception for the Contemporary Women’s Art Show

Don’t miss this unforgettable night of art, light, and community as we come together to celebrate creativity, resilience, and the power of women in the arts.

Light up the night with us during one of the darkest months of the year as we shine a spotlight on the incredible talent and creativity of Kern County’s women artists. This special evening will not only celebrate the beauty and impact of their work but also honor the women who have made a difference in our lives.

See the brand new mural on the west side of the building, painted by artist Nathan Richard Phelps, sponsored by the city of Bakersfield.

Enjoy the open mic with spoken word of women poets and writers; shop the new rotation of artisans at the Makers Market to purchase art by our local creatives.
