Frances Trainor
Member-at-large
I grew up surrounded by nature—at first by the sea and very old, very tall trees. I have a deep love of wolves and respect for how they re-establish and maintain the health of critical eco systems. It’s women and wolves, trees and the sea, and digging into my own roots to offer something respectfully with integrity. I studied fine art and dance in the USA and abroad. My formal studies were at PSU, Limerick School of Art and Design, and at Christian-Albrecht Universität in Germany.
Donna Mohan
Member-at-large
I have found a natural home in stitched art, where hand painted and found fabrics, thread, and small hand-worked details come together in quiet conversation. The slow, tactile act of stitching allows me to translate fleeting impressions—light across a garden, a bird at rest or the stillness of water. Texture is important in my work and free motion stitching provides that element.
Claudia Morgan
Member-at-large
Claudia Morgan is a Nashville artist who paints to celebrate and share the joy that comes from being wholly observant. She is excited by the effects of light and color; natural beauty is her inspiration. Her subject matter is whatever she has seen that has stopped her in her tracks. Perhaps the light has been just so, or the setting just so, or her own state of mind just especially receptive in that instant.

Continue the “I am Grateful for You” Project with Anne Labovitz
SAT JUNE 13 FROM 1-2:30 ET
12 am CT | 11 am MT | 10 am PT
FREE for WCA members | Non-members $20- Register via link tree in bio
Join us for a concluding program reflecting on the “I am Grateful for You” postcard initiative, a year-long partnership between Anne Labovitz’s I Love You Institute and the Women’s Caucus for Art. This session will highlight how artists, WCA chapters, and community members embraced this nomadic, socially engaged project—using small, handmade gestures to foster connection and care.
Since its launch on Valentine’s Day 2025 at the College Art Association Conference, the project has distributed over 1,500 postcards across the country. Participants will discuss the impact of engaging in gratitude as a radical act.
This final gathering also marks a transition: the project will move online, offering downloadable postcard templates so individuals and communities can continue the work independently. By expanding access, the “I am Grateful for You” project remains an open invitation to participate in radical acts of kindness——anytime, anywhere.
