“THE WILD SIDE: California Women Celebrate the Untamed”
NCWCA California Juried Exhibition Opening Reception: Saturday, June 18th 7-9PM “You were once wild here. Don’t let them tame you.” - Isadora Duncan We all have a wild side, whether we stride boldly there or keep it under the radar. Women, traditionally, have been taught to keep their “wildness” under wraps - raucous, adventurous, risk-taking, bold & brave, sometimes licentious, or living outside traditional moral codes. The Wild Side celebrates the untamed. Northern California Women's Caucus June 18 - August 13, 2022 |
