The Womxn Project held an artivism fundraiser in advance of Valentine’s Day in their project space at 189 Broadway, Providence, RI. The event was called “Advocacy is Love, a Creative Postcard Exhibition” featuring 16 awesome artists curating this project together.

Artists involved created 4” x 6” piece(s) of work that are sold for $35 each – seriously! Part of the goal of this project is to make art accessible. Hundreds of pieces represented names/signatures on the back of each piece to democratically emphasize the quality of work, not the popularity of the artist.

After the event, TWP used their project space for viewing of the pieces for purchase two weeks after the opening.

Meet the Artists & Curators!

Meet the curators and explore the artists who came together in support of Advocacy is Love. Collectively, we all are finding creative ways that stand up to hate, support reproductive rights in RI, and forward equality in this state while looking to do the same for the nation.
