2019 NCWCA GOALS
FRESH IDEA! ART CRIT
We are starting a Women's Art Crit Salon, a space for female-identifying artists to share their work and get feedback on their practice. We want to foster a diverse, open and constructive environment as well as an opportunity for all involved to see and learn from a wide range of practices and perspectives. Crit sessions will be 1.5 hours long and give 6 artists 15 minutes each to present work
When: Tuesday, March 19, 7-8:30 PM Where: The Laundry SF Gallery, 3359 26th St, San Francisco. Apply: Please email your website link, Instagram, or 5 images of your work to inga@ncwca.org Entry Fee: $10 administrative fee for artists chosen to show work, free for members of NCWCA Deadline: Friday March 8 Notification of Acceptance: March 11 Attend: Everyone is invited to attend the Salon: professional artists, current and prospective art students, graduates, self-taught artists and anyone with an interest in art.

JUNCTURES IN WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP: THE ARTS BOOK SIGNING MAR 31, 2019
The Northern California Women’s Caucus for Art and The Feminist Art Project invite you to join us at Arc Gallery for a presentation, interactive discussion with a Q&A session and book signing with Judith K. Brodsky and Ferris Olin, Founding Directors of The Feminist Art Project.
Junctures in Women’s Leadership: The Arts is one of a series called Junctures in Women's Leadership, being published by Rutgers University Press. In this third volume of the series, Judith K. Brodsky and Ferris Olin profile female leaders in music, theater, dance, and visual art. The diverse women included in this publication have made their mark by serving as executives or founders of art organizations, by working as activists to support the arts, or by challenging stereotypes about women in the arts. The contributors explore several important themes such as the role of feminist leadership in changing cultural values regarding inclusivity and gender parity, as well as the feminization of the arts and the power of the arts as cultural institutions. Limited Seating! Get free tickets here: https://www.eventbrite.com/o/ncwca-11236225833
