Centro Cultural Aztlan is pleased to present the 14th annual Mujeres de Aztlan exhibition, titled Mujeres de Aztlan: Rise, Speak, Act. Through this annual exhibition, Centro Cultural Aztlan aims to raise the visibility of women artists working to develop their careers and expand their artistic expressions.
This year’s exhibition and floricanto will focus on social issues facing women, including reproductive justice, working conditions, access, identity, and other relevant issues of today. We selected artwork that addresses women’s experiences, struggles, roles, and contributions as creators, supporters, change-makers, nurturers, and more. Artists are encouraged to express their unique perspectives on diverse social issues. The Lead Artist for this exhibition is Sarah Shore.
