In 2018, Pink Progression participated in three local unique exhibitions at the Center for Visual Art, Denver Public Library, and Boulder Public Library for a period of seven months, incorporating compelling dynamic artwork, interactive workshops, artist lectures, published books, and community collaborations. These exhibitions are inspired by the historical women and sister marches that began in January 2017. Pink Progression commemorates, celebrates, and builds on the solidarity established during these marches, addressing concepts of human rights, gender, sexual identity, and inclusivity.
*These exhibitions include all gender identities and expressions. Follow us @pinkprogression.
We are excited to announce our 2020 exhibit, Pink Progression: Collaborations at the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities from June 4 – August 23, 2020. Click here to see more events inspired by the 100th anniversary of the women’s vote @ the Arvada Center.
