Tuesday, June 24 // Roundtable Talks, Contemporary Essays
Join me and writer/journalist/visual artist Vanessa Garcia as we examine new strategies and theories relating to contemporary feminism. Much has been written lately about the current state of feminism, so let’s take a look, find some time to read up and see if we can make some sense of it all.

About TFAP
The Feminist Art Project (TFAP) is an international collaborative initiative celebrating the Feminist Art Movement and the aesthetic, intellectual and political impact of women on the visual arts,art history and art practice, past and present. The Feminist Art Project re-focuses public attention on the signal achievements of the Feminist Art Movement and shines a spotlight on current feminist art influences, trends and accomplishments.
The Feminist Art Project promotes diverse feminist art events, education and publications through its website calendar. Website visitors can find exhibitions, lectures, artist talks, classes, films and other art related activities in their area or to include in their travel plans. TFAP preserves all calendar listings in the TFAP virtual archives and requests documentation from calendar participants to add to its physical archive.
TFAP facilitates regional networking and program development internationally and throughout the U.S. by linking visitors to TFAP Regional Coordinators. Regional coordinators and groups work with artists, teachers, writers, curators and venues to develop and promote feminist art events. Interested web-visitors can learn how to become involved with The Feminist Art Project in their own communities by contacting a coordinator in their region.
