My favorite stories about Ruth are her unending drive for arts programs in San Francisco schools. Her art is amazing, but her dedication to art in the community is what makes her an icon.

“She’s one of the greatest to ever do it imo. Her work is grounded in the cycles of the earth, and her personal impact on arts education is beyond admirable. She respected the world and especially children in a way we rarely see from grown ups. Such an inspiration.”

“Ruth Asawa's work is incredible, but also I feel so inspired by the way she worked as a mother. She found her art something to be done alongside family, in the home, and around her children because it was part of life.”
