Art exhibit for Women’s History Month to open Thursday

The opening of the art exhibition, “Strong Enough for a Woman,” will be held March 31 on the fourth floor art gallery of the John B. Coleman Library.
“This event is in celebration of Women’s History Month and it highlights a lot of different ideas and subject matter. The common thread throughout all of the art in this exhibit is that it is done by women of color, Black and Latino female artists,” said Lauren Kelly, the event’s curator. “I wanted to put up an art exhibit to represent the differences of women and show all that we are. It is not designed to bash men, but to showcase our many strengths and complexities.”
Some artists whose work will be displayed at the opening are Ann Johnson, Maya Watson, Tina Hernandez, and Edie Rojas.
There will be a lunch reception Thursday at 11:30 a.m. in the Coleman Library for the exhibit.
The exhibit will run from March 31 until April 3 and will be opened daily from 11:30 a.m. until 2 p.m.
