More details:
In 2021, I started an Amazing Women Series. Almost every Friday, I celebrate different women. I create a tribute post and share it on LinkedIn, Facebook, and Instagram. Throughout the 2.5 years, I have featured 32 Bay Area Women.
On Friday, April 19th, I will host a gathering to celebrate all of the Bay Area Women I have featured + all of the other Amazing Bay Area Women I have yet to feature…like YOU!! :). This gathering is an opportunity to meet some amazing women in the Bay Area! All women (trans and cis) are welcome, even if you live outside the Bay Area!

🎨 In 2022, I featured Leva Zand as part of my Amazing Women Series. Leva Zand is the Founder and Executive Director of ARTogether.
Leva Zand has made an over 15-year career and educational commitment to refugees, human rights, and social justice activism and advocacy. Leva founded the nonprofit ARTogether in 2017.
🎨 ARTogether’s mission is to provide art programs that foster compassionate communities where refugees and immigrants can flourish.
🎨 The ARTogether Center in downtown Oakland serves as a cultural center, community hub, and exhibition venue for Bay Area refugee and immigrant artists. The Gallery exhibits solo and group shows, with a particular focus on talented and skilled artists who have historically lacked access and resources to share their own work. Our exhibitions connect artists to their audiences and their community by creating a platform for their art and their stories.
ARTogether’s current exhibit: Dalit Dreamlands: Toward an Anti-Caste Future (April 6 - June 10, 2024)
Dalit Dreamlands, curated by Manu Kaur (they/them) and supported through Asian American Women Artists Association (AAWAA)’s Emerging Curator’s Program, will center queer and trans caste abolitionist futurisms through art across various mediums, including fashion design, music, performances, films, paintings and visuals.
