Held every March during International Women’s Month, the annual Women’s Show is a juried exhibit open to art in all mediums by cis and trans women artists.

2026 juror: Cath Smith
Cath Smith is a British-born, Ohio-based multidisciplinary artist and educator working in ceramics and oil painting. Her practice is rooted in thoughtful making, strong form, and close attention to material, surface, and proportion. In both her wheel-thrown porcelain vessels and her paintings, she values restraint, clarity, and quiet emotional presence.
Teaching and mentorship are central to Smith’s work. She is known for guiding artists with patience and generosity, helping them build technical confidence while developing their own voice through careful observation and intentional decision-making.
Alongside an active studio practice, Smith brings broad experience in critique and review across disciplines. As a juror, she values work that is honest, resolved, and made with clear intention.
