NWWS Signature Membership

NWWS encourages all associate members to pursue a high level of artistic accomplishment and to pursue achieving Signature Membership status and, later, Gold Medal Fellowship status. Both levels have specific requirements.

Signature status indicates the artist has earned the privilege to use “NWWS” following his/her signature.

Signature status is available to artists who have satisfied the requirements (see below), completed the application process, and maintain an active membership. 

Only current members who have attained NWWS Signature status may use the letters “nwws” after their painting signature.
NWWS Signature requirements
EXHIBITION REQUIREMENT

If you have fulfilled the requirements for Signature Membership (Congratulations!), your application can be processed after the opening of the exhibition that completed the requirements.

Applicants for Signature status must have been accepted into and exhibited in:

  • Two or more NWWS Annual International Open Exhibitions, OR
  • Two NWWS Waterworks Membership Exhibitions and one NWWS Annual International Open Exhibition.
MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENT

Applicants must also fulfill the membership requirement:

  • Membership dues must have been paid each year, continuously, from the first acceptance into a qualifying exhibition through the last acceptance into a qualifying exhibition, OR
  • Membership dues can be paid retroactively for any years in which dues were not paid between the first qualifying acceptance and the last qualifying acceptance.
SIGNATURE MEMBERSHIP STATUS

Signature members must continue to pay yearly dues in order to refer to themselves as Signature Members in publicity or promotional efforts and to use the signature initials “NWWS” after their painting signatures.

Only members who are Signature Members may use the letters “NWWS” after their painting signature.
