Join Us

A Women’s Thing is a publication about women in arts and culture, from artists working now to the ones art history set aside. Museums, galleries, publishers, film and theater still fall short on gender and racial parity, so we make room here for the work that deserves more attention, through interviews, essays and reviews.
