The Art and Soul Program began in 2003 with the Women’s Center of Jacksonville’s (WCJ) commitment to provide a woman-friendly environment for women artists to display and sell their art. A percentage of all art sales benefit the WCJ. Art and Soul has proven to be an empowering experience for the artists and an ongoing cultural experience for clients, staff, and visitors. WCJ believes that art, with its ability to educate, heal, entertain, and inspire, has a place in all aspects of the programs and services of the agency.

Exhibiting art is in keeping with the Center's mission to nurture
mind, body, and spirit. The purpose of this program is to celebrate
and increase awareness of women made art.
