ERA NOW (Equal Rights Association), Arts for Vets, and the Women's Fund (a component fund of the Community Foundation of Grand Forks, East Grand Forks and Region) invite you to join us for "Rise & Reclaim: An Art Show Celebrating International Women's Day".
The 2025 IWD theme is "Accelerate Action" and we've chosen two action verbs: "Rise and Reclaim." The words rise and reclaim are inspired by two women who are all too familiar with accelerating action. Maya Angelou's poem "Still I Rise" serves at the inspiration point for the word Rise and Maxine Waters's historically uttered phrase, "Reclaiming my Time" is the inspiration for the word Reclaim. When we inspire others to understand and value women's inclusion in all sectors of society, family, business and culture, we forge a better world. And when women themselves are inspired to be included, there's a sense of belonging, relevance, empowerment and conscious acknowledgement of all the contributions women give to make the world a better place.
The “Rise & Reclaim” art show will be a month-long celebration of women’s contributions in all sectors of society, family, business, and culture. Art submissions will be accepted through January 30, 2025.
