AAUW Greensboro is thrilled to announce that local artist Julie Dameron’s painting “Beach Friends” is one of 6 paintings chosen to be printed on cards and distributed all over the United States. There were 392 entries in this online AAUW Art Contest 2018. https://www.aauw.org/contests/ Julie shares, “Alice, Phyllis and Betty, your heads and hats will be shown all over the country.” 

Each year, the AAUW Art Contest mails the winning entries on note cards to all 170,000 members with a donation request to support barrier-breaking work. Because the selected artwork is from members, the contest is a wonderful way for them to donate their talents to AAUW. And what talented members we have! 

The American Association of University Women (AAUW) is the nation’s leading voice promoting equity and education for women and girls. Since its founding in 1881, AAUW members have examined and taken positions on the fundamental issues of the day — educational, social, economic, and political.

AAUW Greensboro Branch is fulfilling its mission of supporting gender equity and opportunity by offering education and outreach programs in science, technology, engineering and math for girls, as well as salary negotiations skills training for women. The Branch works closely with local colleges and universities as well other collaborative partners throughout the community. https://greensboro-nc.aauw.net/

Of the six cards, Greensboro members most love Julie’s Beach Friends.

Thank you, Julie for putting us in the national spot light.
