The Feminist Art Coalition (FAC) brings together arts institutions rooted in social justice and structural change, working "to generate cultural awareness of feminist thought, experience, and action." FAC recognizes that the feminist lens is shaped by many thinkers and highlights the perspectives of these scholars (e.g., Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Angela Davis, among many others). Apsara DiQuinzio launched FAC in 2017 in collaboration with several colleagues and through financial support from the Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. More than 100 institutions contributed to the project, from the Milwaukee Art Museum (Milwaukee, WI) to the Mills College Art Museum (Oakland, CA). A full list of contributors is available on the Participating Institutions page. Clicking the plus sign icon next to each museum reveals relevant exhibitions (with a brief description and show dates). The site also features a series of essays on feminist issues (under Notes on Feminisms) and a collection of books, videos, and other relevant pieces (under Resources).
