An oil painting of three women standing against a white wall, looking at the viewer. The women are wearing casual clothes and have medium skin and dark, tied-back hair. The woman on the left is older and holds a mop to the ground with both hands. The woman in the middle holds a spray bottle and rag. The woman on the right rests her arm on the back of a folded metal chair.
Join us for a special members-only event where artists reimagine our places of being, belonging, and coexisting.

Event Description

About the Event

Since 2020, our world has been transformed by a global pandemic, advocacy for social reform, and political division. How have these extraordinary times inspired artists? Works by the 28 artists featured in New Worlds: Women to Watch 2024 explore these ideas from perspectives that shift across geographies, cultural viewpoints, and time.

Once a month, leading up to and through the opening of the exhibition in April 2024, NMWA curators host a special members-only virtual event with a group of participating artists to discuss one of the themes of the exhibition. In November’s panel discussion, artists Graciela Arias (representing Peru), Saskia Jordá (Arizona), Alexis McGrigg (Mississippi), Arely Morales (Texas), and Aimée Papazian (Arkansas) reveal the ways in which their work reflects themes of migration, displacement, and world-building.
