Calling All NASTY WOMEN Artists of Lubbock - This is a group exhibition that serves to demonstrate solidarity among artists who identify with being a "Nasty Woman" in the face of threats to role back women’s rights, individual rights, and reproductive rights. The base group organizers will consist of members of the all women's art group chiCrits. A call out for artwork will be curated keeping in mind the two main points of the original organizers in New York City.

1.) Reach out to and include a diverse group of female identifying artists.

2.) This exhibition is a fundraiser to raise money to support a local organization(s) that support women's rights, such as Women's Protective Services and the Lubbock Rape Crisis Center

We will also keep the title NASTY WOMEN to collaborate with New York City and be featured on their web site; www.nastywomenexhibition.org 

Objective: The most recent US political climate has offered artist, specifically women identified artist, with an abundance of material to last us a lifetime of creativity. More specifically, the notion that women are "nasty", as spoken by now President-Elect Donald J. Trump to the first woman to achieve the Democratic nomination for President of the United States, Hillary Clinton. This exhibition supports our women centered creative research by showcasing, honoring, and celebrating the work we have already produced or will produce in response to the vile, hateful and demeaning rhetoric directed at our people and our planet. 

Artwork: This is a call for art, 2D and 3D, from regional (South Plains of Texas) women identified artist.
