Bent But Not Broken
Thank you for your patience & support as we go through one of the most challenging times we have faced as a team – and as the Museum of Motherhood organization.
We made it out of the hurricane but exist in a community full of obstacles.
Many of our board members, family members, and community members have extensive damage to their homes & jobs. Some homes & lives are lost forever.
While Tampa Bay limps back to basic necessities like water, electricity, and debris removal, our non-profit’s programming & access have been impacted.
Our Report
The MoM Art Auction in collaboration with OXH Gallery has been postponed until the spring with a new date TBD. We will update information here as we have it.

Its not just us – our sponsors are struggling with their own infrastructure while MoM’s promotions and organization of the 25th Annual Academic Conference announcements have been delayed.
We are still setting up our new space in the face of extreme weather.
When Will We Focus On The Ethics of Well-Bring ?
WHAT CAN WE DO?
World focus needs to shift towards sustainability & longer term solutions.
Access, support, and fiscal stability for mothers, families & caregivers in the U.S. is an ongoing social epidemic which must be confronted.

Locally, ‘Give or Get’ is open for donations during MoM’s regular hours:
-Thursday-Sat 12-6PM
-Sunday 12-3PM
Visit our new location: 2606 Fairfield Ave. S Gallery Row: Building 7 Door B
Donation box inside. Child-friendly. Free play.
At MoM We Persist.
We continue because our mission is bigger than the moment.
The Museum of Motherhood team has come together in unprecedented ways. Even as this message reaches you, we are busy building back better ways to reach those in need, those who aspire, and those who are devoted to making the world a brighter, smarter, and more generous place.
BE THE LIGHT (WHEN YOU CAN):
May the peace that surpasses all understanding find you wherever you are.
I continue to embody JOY!
We are with YOU ![]()

FB I Insta @museumofmotherhood
The Museum of Motherhood is the first and only exhibition & education center devoted to the art, science, and herstory of women, m/others, and families. We are invested in countering narratives that have kept women less visible. We keep abreast of changing birth technologies and give voice to a mom-made art movement through our actions.
