Call for Artists

 

21st Annual

Mujeres, Mujeres, Mujeres!

(Women, Women, Women!)

 

May 9 – June 20, 2026

 

Women artists have been marginalized for centuries and still face many obstacles and disparities, as well as persistent underrepresentation in exhibitions and museum collections worldwide. In spite of these barriers, these artists continue to make art with the knowledge that art made by women has been largely ignored throughout much of history. The journey of women in art is a testament to resilience and creativity, and we at Raices continue to foster an environment that celebrates and supports these voices as they shape the future.

 

Now in its 21st year, Mujeres, Mujeres, Mujeres (Women, Women, Women) is our annual exhibition paying homage to the artistic achievements of women by exhibiting and applauding their work.  One of our largest exhibitions each year, this exhibition brings together an exciting mix of art from traditional to cutting edge contemporary created by women artists from all walks of life.

 

There is no thematic subject matter for Mujeres, Mujeres, Mujeres - this exhibition is instead a look at the exciting range of artwork currently being created by women.  We welcome (but are not limited to) submissions of paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, & mixed media work, etc.
