A.I.R. Gallery: 50+ Years of Feminist Solidarity and Mutual Empowerment

For more than half a century, A.I.R. Gallery has been a shelter in the storm for women artists marginalized by the mainstream contemporary art world and art historical canon. In that time, thousands of women and non-binary artists—at every stage of their careers and from around the globe—have come together at A.I.R. on the premise that feminist art practice is not about the kind of work an artist makes, but about how they work with others.

Today A.I.R. continues to be a vibrant, feminist, artist-run nonprofit arts organization and alternative space that champions the voices of women and non-binary artists. Through our programming—including 20–25 solo and curated group exhibitions each year, regular free public events, our Fellowship Program for Emerging Artists, and education and outreach initiatives in local schools and domestic violence shelters—A.I.R. centers creative risk-taking and community building in the face of persistent inequities.

Your tax-deductible contribution of any size will support programs that provide career-sustaining opportunities and resources to women and non-binary artists and arts workers, and ensure that we can continue championing their voices for many years to come.
