About Us
Project La Femme is a collective of artist friends who felt compelled to create work that addresses social issues we personally engage in. This group came out of a discussion had by friends on the day of the Women's March 2017. We are ever evolving and looking for artists and organizations to collaborate with.
MISSION
The personal is political as we, a collective of artists, seek to create and investigate images and definitions of women through diversity, inclusiveness and honesty. Our goal is to challenge and expand on the concept of feminine, to use art as activism, provide value and support to our community and hold ourselves accountable in amplifying voices potentially deemed "other".
We are currently assembling a Board of Trustees! Join our mission and apply today!
