Enterprising Women Making Art (EWMA) is a self-employment initiative launched in 2003 by Atira Women's Resource Society in Vancouver. It aims to empower women impacted by violence in the Downtown Eastside, offering safe income-generating opportunities. Blending art, community, and social entrepreneurship, EWMA supports women artists and artisans in a democratic and equitable social enterprise, pooling resources to create and market visual art and handmade products. Through its inclusive approach, EWMA works with diverse groups of women, including aboriginal, immigrant, senior women, and those with disabilities, operating from a harm reduction and anti-oppressive framework. Participants actively engage in designing, planning, and producing a range of handmade products such as jewelry, knitwear, ceramics, and fine arts photography. The program aims to empower artisans, improve socio-economic conditions, and promote community cohesion by recognizing the strengths of the Downtown Eastside community.
