A Room of Her Own Foundation
Mission:
A Room of Her Own Foundation was founded in 2000 as a result of one woman’s desire to help women in their artistic pursuits. Inspired by writer Virgina Woolf’s words that a woman “must have money and a room of her own if she is to write,” AROHO’s founder realized that even in this millennium many female artists lack the privacy and financial stability essential to artistic output. Through its generous grant program and unique writers’ retreat experiences, A Room of Her Own Foundation serves to empower women and educate the community about the important work of female artists and writers.
