Developed during Netflix star Julia Haart’s monthly 'Feminist roundtable,' and led by master mural painter C. Finley, join us for a day of Art and Activism centered on the creation of a large scale mural on the walls of NYC arts institution, La Mama ETC. Hundreds of women will come together to create a collage of 'Story Stars,' encapsulating their personal journeys from oppression to empowerment inside a beautiful mural of Lady Justice. In the wake of the DOBBS decision overturning Roe V Wade and the women led revolution in Iran, catalyzed by Mahsa Amini’s death, it is a crucial time for women to come together in community and spread messages of resistance.

“From issues of safety to access, public spaces have often been less available to women. In the tradition of the Guerrilla Girls, paint2power is making that point–beautifully and publicly.” — Gloria steinem
