“Feminist history and futures in America; themes of erasure, visibility, intersectionality, gender justice, cultural resistance, and the 250th anniversary of the United States”
Woman Made Gallery (WMG) invites women and nonbinary artists to submit work for Feminism 250: Woman Made America. Anchored in America 250—the nationwide commemoration of the United States' 250th anniversary—this exhibition reflects on the long arc of feminist history within a broader national moment of remembrance, reckoning, and re‑imagining. As one of the nation's longest continually operating feminist art spaces, WMG enters this milestone with a history shaped by decades of cultural resistance, artist‑led advocacy, community care, and the ongoing fight to claim space for those long pushed to the margins.
Themes and Areas of Inquiry: histories of erasure and the ongoing struggle for visibility and recognition; reclamation of authorship, narrative power, and cultural agency; feminist activism across time, including movements, collectives, and community organizing; intersectional experiences of gender, race, class, sexuality, disability, and migration; art as a site of resistance, critique, or social transformation; reimagining identity, belonging, and community through feminist perspectives; honoring overlooked figures and amplifying marginalized histories; personal narratives that illuminate broader struggles for justice, equity, and representation; creative responses to the current political moment.
Submissions are open to women and nonbinary artists at all career stages, working in any medium. Submitted work must be original, created by the artist, and produced without the primary use of AI image-generation tools.
