WMG is Chicago’s longest-operating nonprofit feminist art gallery. Since 1992, WMG has pushed forward the vision to ensure the equal placement of women’s art in the world, while building a community of its own. Woman Made Gallery’s mission is to support, cultivate, and promote women-identified and non-binary artists through exhibitions, membership, and community dialogue programs.

Woman Made Gallery is a space for women and non-binary artists, including trans women and femme/feminine-identifying genderqueer. We welcome artists from our local community, regionally based, and around the world.

Since its founding, WMG has shown the artistic work of over 9,000 women in 445 exhibitions. Nine exhibitions are hosted annually at WMG in the Pilsen neighborhood. Approximately 60% of all artists whose work is exhibited are from Chicago and surrounding suburbs.

WMG boasts a membership base of over 300 artists annually. To date, WMG has connected members to over 15,000 supporters via networking events and online promotion.

WMG hosts conversations on the issues that matter most to women and that makes sense of the world through a feminist lens. Artist talks, panel discussions, poetry readings, among other public programs have been offered to inspire community dialogue between artists and community members.
