Hosted on March 6, 2020, CHROMA was presented as a new screening event in response to Women’s Equality Day and in celebration of Women’s History Month.
2020 marks the 100 year anniversary of the day white women in America gained the right to vote. However, it is often misinterpreted as the day all women in America received the right to vote. Throughout the echoes of history, black and brown women were barred from many opportunities and spaces. Female/Femme artists of color still face some of these same barriers in the contemporary world of art and design.
We now represent this program to you in order to create a digital space and home for these works and artists whose works are imperative to share.
Thanks again to all our participants and attendees!
