Women's Wisdom Art

Women's Wisdom Art is a program of Sacramento Food Bank & Family Services that offers a variety of art experiences for women who want to broaden their creative lives.  Designed as a uniquely feminine environment that supports the artistic and personal growth of women in all stages of life, Women's Wisdom Art believes that artistic exploration naturally brings greater self-knowledge. Classes, which include lunch, are free and taught by professional artists. They include drawing, textiles, clay, mixed media, poetry, gourd crafting, creative writing, and painting with acrylics and water color.

Women's Wisdom Art, founded in 1990, offers a safe, nurturing environment for women of all backgrounds. Through the support of staff, volunteers, and fellow students, women are introduced to art and its healing properties. Women are able to realize their true potentials and learn the importance of imagination, control, patience and emotional discipline. Women working together in an informal setting provide a warm comfortable place for artistic exploration. All women who wish to participate are welcome.

Women’s Wisdom Art accepts women from all backgrounds and walks of life. All supplies are provided, no experience necessary, no childcare available. Click here for the current class schedule.
