Bringing Feminist Work From Red States to NYC

Through our Interstate Initiative we amplify the voices of women, non-binary, and underrepresented genders from communities outside New York City, specifically targeting states actively suppressing their rights.

This program not only provides vital support to feminist artists in communities where they lack it, but it also enriches the NYC "bubble" with crucial front-line perspectives and experiences. Building on the success of our university residencies, the Initiative extends our mission by inviting accepted projects to the Bechdel Project studios for dedicated time and space to advance their work and share it with NY audiences.
