The Woman’s Art Journal encourages you to visit the websites of these other valuable feminist art-historical organizations and groups.

The Feminist Institute documents feminist contributions to culture by preserving and digitizing archival materials and making thehttps://www.thefeministinstitute.org/m free for access by students, researchers, and the public. Among their offerings is the A.I.R. Gallery Collection, a set of forty-one documents relating to the Artists in Residency Gallery in New York, the first all-women artists’ cooperative gallery in the United States (1972–present). TFI is one of the Woman’s Art Journal‘s official partners.

The College Art Association Committee on Women in the Arts (CAA CWA) supports emerging and established women-identifying artists, scholars, educators, arts writers, critics, curators, gallerists, museum professionals, and other arts professionals. They publish “CWA Picks,” a helpful listing of exhibitions and performances featuring women artists, every quarter on the CAA website. They select nominees for CAA’s Distinguished Feminist Awards, with artist Kay Walkingstick and art historian Hilary Robinson as the successful nominees in 2024. The CWA’s Feminist Interview Project conducts interviews with women artists and scholars that have been published in CAA’s Art Journal Open. Numerous board members and editorial staff members of the Woman’s Art Journal have served on the CWA.

Based in Paris with a satellite office in New York, AWARE (the Association of Women Artists, Research & Exhibitions) maintains a bilingual French/English database of women and nonbinary visual artists born between 1664 and 1974. In addition to publishing research articles and interviews on their website, AWARE organizes and co-sponsors symposia, seminars, and round tables. With France’s Ministry of Culture, they award the annual Prix AWARE pour les artistes femmes to one midcareer and one late-career artist (with Laura Huertas Millán taking the former honor and Katerina Thomadaki, together with the late Maria Klonaris, accepting the latter in 2024).

Erika Gaffney, a senior editor at an academic press with a robust art history catalogue, and distinguished guest contributors offer regular blog posts at Art Herstory on exhibitions, conferences, publications, and other scholarship relating to Western women artists of the sixteenth through eighteenth century. The sale of high-quality note cards with works by these artists on the Art Herstory website supports this initiative.
