The exhibit will feature pieces by members of the 113-year-old club, and a reception will be held on February 11 during the Fine Arts Sampler Weekend at the college.

Today, the club comprises 250 members and represents all art disciplines including painting, sculpture, photography, copper enameling and computer-generated images. Members of the club meet monthly to hear expert speakers, see demonstrations and take part in painting opportunities and visits to points of interest and museums.
This is the third consecutive year that the Womens Art Club will participate in the Fine Arts Fund Sampler events at UC Clermont. This special weekend will provide more visibility and recognition for our organization, said Dianne Loos, a club member and chairwoman of the February show.
