WAGE ON! Women, Art, and Money

WCA CALL FOR ART — Submission Deadline is November 13, 2016

The Women's Caucus for Art in partnership with Ceres Gallery in the Chelsea district of New York City announces a call for art for the exhibition 'Wage On! Women, Art, and Money' from January 31–February 25, 2017. We seek works that explore the current economic climate and its impact on wages, female identity, and lives of women both in and beyond the art world. Helga Christoffersen of The New Museum will jury the exhibition. Share your art with us and the world!

Artworks may be broadly interpreted from a political, personal, or formal context in any media. Self-identified women artists at all stages of their careers are encouraged to submit works on this important theme.
