THE next time you visit an art museum, look around — not at the paintings, but at the people in the galleries. It’s a fair bet that women will outnumber men; even government statistics say so.

Artists who apply should have experience working with community representatives, landscape architects, businesses and government entities but
it is not mandatory.
