Women of Newport

Kamila Jarczak

“Empowered women, empower women”

Women of Newport is about showing and celebrating wonderful women in our city – their success, passions, commitment and inspiring work. Women of art, creative minds , writers, women of business, those who make a difference , musicians and many more.

The exhibition is also about making physical connections between women’s networks in Newport, so we can work together and help each other, make new collaborations or partnerships. Women helping women – because sometimes by doing something together we can achieve more.
