As March is Women's History Month, we should be honoring, remembering and paying our respects to the many women who have made both large and small feats in shaping history. Luckily, Women Centered Art — a Charlotte-based organization — provides lectures, workshops, films and exhibitions centering on women year-round. The center's upcoming Beauty exhibit, curated by artist Diana Arvanites, explores the many parameters of what "beauty" is through a mix of ideologies and societal/cultural norms (both agreed and disagreed upon). Local artists — Sharon Dowell, Martha Whitfield, Molly Wilbanks, Heather Freeman (see her pictured piece), Shane Agostinelli and Mary Tuma — address their personal expressions of beauty in this showcase of new works.
