Janet Bellotto joins the jury of Art Connects Women 2026 (20/12/2025)
ACW continues to champion the empowerment of women artists globally. Within the creative industries, education nurtures imagination, resilience, and leadership, enabling women artists to innovate and inspire change.
In this spirit, ACW 2026 embraces the theme “Educate to Empower” for its 9th edition. Over the years, ACW has grown into one of the most celebrated global art exhibitions hosted annually in the UAE, bringing together female artists from around the world. The platform not only showcases artistic excellence but also amplifies voices, stories, and creative practices that foster empowerment and cultural dialogue.
This year’s edition is supported by a distinguished jury, including Janet Bellotto, Italian-Canadian multidisciplinary artist, curator, and Dean of the College of Arts and Creative Enterprises at Zayed University.
