Who We Are

Atira Women's Arts Society is a not-for-profit organization committed to providing economic opportunities for women through the teaching, making and selling of art and crafts in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside.

How do we do it? By providing safe spaces for arts-based wellness activities for anyone who identifies and lives full time as a woman, including trans, two spirit and intersex women and or those who identify with a femme of centre non-binary gender, in the Downtown Eastside community who experience violence and other forms of marginalization to market their wares.
