Women's art registry of minnesota

Chartered in 1976 to reflect the vitality of the womens' art movement in Minnesota with commitment to feminist ideas, it is based in Minneapolis/St. Paul. Early members built their own gallery space in Minneapolis, which remained operational until 1991, when they moved their exhibition venue to smaller quarters in St. Paul. A primary ongoing purpose is to serve as a networking entity, and programs in this regard include regular exhibitions, social gatherings, a mentoring program, registry with links to members' websites, and a quarterly newsletter. Members include Phyllis Wiener, Hazel BelvoSource: http://www.thewarm.org/pages/index.php; AskART biography of Phyllis Wiener; http://www.mnhs.org/library/findaids/00101.xml (LPD)
