This International Women's Day, we're proudly celebrating both art and diversity and inclusion by participating in the IWD Portraits initiative! 💜 At Colart, we believe in the transformative power of art to inspire and drive change, and this initiative perfectly aligns with our commitment to diversity and inclusion. The IWD Portraits campaign celebrates women creatives by inviting artists to create and share portraits of the women who have shaped their lives and work. By getting involved, we can help amplify the voices of remarkable women across the creative world, from historical icons or personal mentors. We’ve invited our Colart community to join in celebrating the women who inspire us. Let’s come together to honour these trailblazers, elevate creativity, and contribute to closing the gender gap in the arts. You can get involved here: https://lnkd.in/emR6MFUN #InternationalWomensDay #WomenInArt #GenderEquality #Colart #IWD2025 #AccelerateAction #IWDPortraits

This International Women’s Day, we at Colart honour the incredible achievements of women worldwide and reflect on the ongoing journey towards gender equality. 🌍💜 The theme for IWD 2025, #AccelerateAction, aligns deeply with our mission to inspire every artist in the world. Just as we are committed to empowering artists from all backgrounds with the tools, resources, and support they need to realise their full potential, we recognise the urgency of accelerating gender equality within the creative world and beyond. By breaking down barriers and creating equal opportunities, we can foster a culture of inclusion where everyone - regardless of gender - is supported in pursuing their passion and bringing their creative dreams to life. Let’s take action together, not just this IWD, but every day. Let’s commit to a future where gender equality is a reality for all. Together, we can #AccelerateAction and build a brighter, more inclusive world for future generations. #InternationalWomensDay #GenderEquality #IWD2025 #Colart #InspireArtists #AccelerateAction
