Program areas at Pen and Brush

Pen and brush utilizes its complete arsenal of resources to further the careers of women, women identifying, and non-binary artists and writers. We take an artist-first approach, centering all strategy, development, and programing around individual artists/writers. Pen and brush mentors, supports, advises, exhibits, publishes, and promotes voices who are creating impactful work that is so engrained in a larger cultural dialogue that to deny it recognition is to perpetuate a corrupt and incomplete canon of the history of art and literature. In this way, the organization exposes and fosters the work of artists and writers to the general public and a wide variety of influencers including scholars, collectors, curators, gallerists, agents, press, institutions and publishers to establish and sustain career growth, equitable outcomes, and filter their work into the field so that culture can begin to accurately reflect our world.
