Women to Watch is a collaboration between the museum and its national and international outreach committees. Held every two to three years, the programme highlights emerging and underrepresented women artists. Each edition focuses on a specific theme or medium chosen by NMWA curators, with shortlists developed regionally in consultation with contemporary curators.
