Established in 1975, we are an artist-run resource and community dedicated to preserving and promoting the practices of women and gender diverse artists. Through innovative programming, feminist publishing and advocacy activities, we grow our archive and support access to underrepresented art histories. Please RSVP as soon as possible, and we can't wait to see you there! Refreshments will be provided. If you have any allergies, accessibility requirements, or other considerations we should be aware of, please contact: [email protected] The Women’s Art Register creates and connects on the unceded land of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to Elders, past and present, and recognise the rich and continuing creative cultures of all First Nations people across Australia. Supported by the City of Yarra.
