Internationally acclaimed feminist public and protest art activists, The
Guerrilla Girls, and
Whittier Artists in Storefronts and Cult Status Gallery will partner to
bring the famed activists to the MN electoral process with a benefit to

Local DIY arts organizer, Joan Vorderbruggen whose successful Artists in
Storefronts project in the Whittier neighborhood now in it's second run,
will partner with Cult Status Gallery, Minneapolis's go-to gallery for
subversive, cutting edge urban art. They are organizing this one night
event to support all of our friends and citizens who are affected by the
amendments. Both Joan and Erin have been inspired by the Guerrilla
Girls' feminist art movement throughout their careers, and are extremely
honored and excited to be working with the activist group.
