Each Spring the Empowering HeArts Steering Committee announces the year's theme and invites the Santa Clarita/Los Angeles area community to nominate a woman who personifies the theme. Twelve honorees are selected from the pool of nominations.
Next, the steering committee issues a call to Los Angeles area artists inviting them to create an original work of art to visually and thematically tell an honoree's story. Twelve are selected from the pool and each artist is randomly paired with an honoree. A grand prize is awarded to the artist who tells the most compelling story.
Celebratory books and calendars featuring the entire collection are available for purchase as a keepsake.
