Co-Curators by mixed media artist, Yvonne Lamar-Rogers and Rolinda Ramos, Director of Operations and Programming at El Barrios Artspace PS109 present the third annual “Women Celebrate Women” with an opening reception on Friday, March 10, 2023.

The New York based Artspace pushes boundaries with it’s third annual female centered multimedia group exhibition.

The exhibit celebrates the beauty and resilience of all women. It encompasses the diverse narratives of each artist by exploring through their creative visions: All that we are, all that we have been and all that we aspire to become. Artist and Curator, Lamar-Rogers says the mission of Women Celebrate Women is to celebrate not just Women’s History Month but also celebrate and honor talented, creative women of all backgrounds. “

The exhibit features images, sculptures, fiber arts and more in the heart of an East Harlem artistic community at the beautiful El Barrio’s Artspace PS109. The circa 1899 building, a previously abandoned NYC public school building, was transformed into a community housing complex for artist and their families. It also offers beautiful spaces for the arts as well as cultural programming in the East Haarlem Community. Located at 215 E. 99th Street, New York, NY
10029.

“Art invites us to take the journey beyond price, beyond cost into bearing witness to the world as it is and as it should be. Art invites us to know beauty and to solicit it from even the most tragic of circumstances. Art reminds us that we belong here.” Toni Morrison
