Join us on Thursday, March 13th as we continue to celebrate Women’s History Month as well as the power of art, poetry, and storytelling during a private gallery night at Free, Fearless, Fantastical, a compelling new group exhibition at Pen + Brush curated by Bina Sarkar Ellias.

Featuring over 20 international artists and poets, this exhibition explores themes of liberation, identity, and resilience, giving voice to women and gender-marginalized individuals who have long been silenced by patriarchal norms.

Through striking visual art and evocative poetry, the exhibition creates a space for reflection and empowerment, bringing together diverse cultural perspectives to challenge boundaries and celebrate the strength of collective expression.

The exhibition aligns perfectly with our mission to create meaningful experiences that highlight women’s contributions to art and culture while fostering deeper conversations around identity and self-expression. In addition to the private, after-hours viewing of the show, we’ll have drinks, snacks and talks by several of the artists on view. It will be a great opportunity to explore the power of art, poetry, storytelling — and community!

The event is gender inclusive and open to all honorary ‘women of culture’ and allies.

Art-full members are also invited to join us for drinks & food at Upland afterwards. Full experience tickets for members include 1 drink OR appetizer (from the restaurant’s “One” menu here). All additional food or beverage will need to be paid separately to the host by cash, zelle or venmo on-site.
