Besides judging art, members are also preparing for the Cans d'Arte in conjunction with the Colours Festival in Shafter. Then in March, Clubwomen art, crafts and photography will be judged.

The Shafter Woman's Club is a member of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, one of the largest and oldest women's organizations. It was founded in 1890. They usually meet the first Wednesday of each month at 11:30 a.m. at the Shafter Police Department's Community Room.
The Shafter Woman's Club was organized in 1915 and is open to any person who is interested in working in the community.
