Where Art Lives – AEHK – DOWNLOAD OUR VIRTUAL TOUR BOOKLET!
Our exhibits reflect some of the HER-story of the people who have inhabited MoM as well as the artists, volunteers, and humans who have helped to collectively interpret feminism, activism, and society. As part of the new BIG HUMAN FAMILY exhibit, we see the ways in which our bodies and MINDS intersect to create our reality.
MoM nurtures conversations about the Art, Science, and History of American motherhood, the interdisciplinary field of Mother Studies, and provides opportunities to share personal perspectives and experiences through our various initiatives. Our extensive library with films on a wide variety of topics, research materials from the Demeter Press Collection, and ephemera provide inspiration for those looking to deepen their understanding of mother studies.
As we grow and establish a story about our families & ourselves, we interpret our experiences by naming and labeling them. At MoM we attempt to widely disseminate these interpretations in order to counter narratives which have kept women less visible and carework on the margins.
WHAT’S YOUR SIGN PROJECT – MAKE A SIGN – LEAVE A SIGN AT MoM [LINK]
The What’s Your Sign platform encourages MoM participants to take a stand publicly on the topics near and dear to their hearts. It can also be a way to expressively share your personality and passions in a safe space. We invite you to participate online and send us your image or sign. We will continue to add to this exhibit.
