In a time when women’s rights are being denigrated, women’s health and bodies are being threatened, and women’s pay is still unequal, it is important to remember the strength of the suffrage movement that established women’s right to vote. Honor and recognize the centennial of the 19th Amendment that was ratified on August 18, 1920. Commemorate this pivotal moment in women’s rights with art. Depict your message through paint, print, text, metal, clay, mixed media, glass, fiber, paper, photo, video, or performance. 2-D, 3-D, and computer based works accepted. This call is open to artists 18 and older. You do not need to be a WCAMI member to enter.
