Description

Join us for the ​Cultivate Art + Book Club.  This is a free book club to ignite creativity and learning with the community. 

In this monthly book club experience, participants read the book, make art related to the book or artist, and discuss.  

Our September book is: The Women Who Changed Art Forever: Feminist Art – The Graphic Novel, by Valentina Grande.

Book Description: 

"These women changed art forever - told in colorful graphic novel form, this is the story of four pioneers of feminist art: Judy Chicago, Faith Ringold, Ana Mendieta, and the Guerilla Girls.

Each made their mark in their own powerful way. Judy Chicago made us reassess the female body, Faith Ringold taught us that feminism is for everyone, Ana Mendieta was a martyr to violence against women, while the Guerilla Girls have taken the fight to the male-dominated museum. This graphic novel tells each of their stories in a unique style."

We recommend that participants get their books from a local bookstore.  We highly recommend Books and Mortar!
