Saturday, March 8 is International Women's Day (IWD) and the King Heritage & Cultural Centre is celebrating with the opening of Resist & Persist, a new women's art exhibition.
For this 4th IWD exhibition at the KHCC, artists were challenged to consider the past, present and future of women’s rights and the struggle for equality, acceptance, and empowerment. Artists drew inspiration from personal struggles, notable women, moments in history, and more. The result is a thoughtful, dynamic exhibition displaying the work of over 25 emerging and established women artists.
Resist & Persist opens on March 8, International Women’s Day, and is on display until Saturday, April 26. Visitors are invited to an opening reception on March 8, 1-2 pm and an artist forum to follow (2-3 pm), during which some artists will speak about their artwork.
RSVP preferred to kingmuseum@king.ca
