Director Statement

In creating “Two Women & the Pavilion in the Water”, Clare Vickery of Grace Arts Florida assembled a passionate group of architects, artists, and historians to tell a story about equality, history and education.

Our team set out to craft a film that shares the struggles and triumphs of two talented women in what was a male-dominated field. The film pays tribute to this pair of courageous and determined women who overcame adversity to make their architectural dreams a reality.
