Women in Camo is an exclusive opportunity for you to play an active role in Conservation Through Art 2010, a goundbreaking partnership between ArtsMemphis and Ducks Unlimited to raise significant funds and awareness for conservation efforts and the arts.

Women in Camo will support the publication of a cookbook, which will feature celebrity chefs and food writers telling the stories of the South's best hunting clubs through famous recipes and interviews with the beloved cooks who make each meal memorable. Each of the participants in this exclusive Women in Camo support group will  receive recognition in the cookbook and a signature Women in Camo apron. During the CTA festivities this fall, this select group of women will serve as the hostesses for an exclusive party and will be recognized at the CTA celebration dinner, on collateral material and at all special events during the week-long celebration.
