How they approach the work

Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.

  • Cultural Erasure Intervention
    methodology: cultural-erasure-intervention
    By coordinating national programming and public engagement, we counter the erasure of women from the cultural record, because systemic visibility restores historical continuity and challenges dominant narratives.
  • Digital Networking for Decentralized Programming
    methodology: digital-networking-for-decentralized-programming
    By using digital infrastructure to network and share resources, we amplify feminist art and enable regional programming, because decentralized access increases local ownership and movement resilience.
