ka-POW! HEROIC WOMEN EXHIBITION 
February 15 - May 29, 2018

Picture
​KaPow: Heroic Women exhibition is an initiative of the Northern California Women’s Caucus for Art (NCWCA) in collaboration with the Pacific Pinball Museum.

Heroic women are those who say "Me Too”, steadfast friends, mothers, sisters, famous and unknown women of the past whose lives speak to us, living artists, fantasy figures, and living, working, women.  We are in a historical moment where our society is once again examining the role and treatment of women.  There is a desperate need to see women through women's eyes.
 
Opening Reception: Thursday, February 15, 2018 from 5-9pm
Where: The Pacific Pinball Museum, 1510 Webster St., Alameda, CA
Exhibition Dates: February 15 through Sunday April 29, 2018
Admission: Viewing is free with admission to the museum.
Websites: NCWCA.org and pacificpinball.org
Contact: Melissa Harmon: mharmon@pacificpinball.org
 
KaPow Statement
KaPow! Heroic Women is being shown in the gallery of the Pacific Pinball Museum, which exhibits over a century of pinball machines.

A great deal of the art about women and girls on pinball machines is undeniably sexist, yet many of the women depicted are heroic figures: athletes, cowgirls, adventurers, rocket riders, queens.  Come and view the KaPow exhibition as the expression of today’s artists working within the chaos and complexity of current events.

KaPow! depicts our varied, dignified and sometimes humorous strengths, a heroism that is ongoing, changing the social and political landscape, and making women’s history.  We join a global movement of activists laying the foundations required for inclusive, intersectional gender equity.
 
NCWCA President: Sawyer Rose
Ka-Pow Jurors:  Leisel Whitlock: NCWCA Exhibitions Chair
Melissa Harmon: Curator, Pacific Pinball Museum and NCWCA member
D’Arci Bruno: Director, Pacific Pinball Museum
