Collaborating for the fourth year in a row, Athena Project, Milk Market, and Dairy Block present “Women In Their Infinite Forms”, a public arts installation curated especially for Women’s History Month. Using table top lamps as the base of the artwork, we’ve invited 10 artists to design and build an artful interpretation based on this theme.
Projects will be displayed at various locations around the Dairy Block during Women’s History Month from March 8-31, with all sales proceeds donated to Athena Project as part of our annual fundraiser celebrating artists who are women or an underrepresented gender in all disciplines.
We are pleased to celebrate the artists who are currently working on this commission: Mayra Avina, Elsa Carenbauer, Jean-Marie Hewitt, Jerri Hobdy, Shanel Hughes, Jeanne Johns, Pamela Nocerino, Sofi Rami, Sarah Tenney, and Michelle Joy Wecksler.
The public is invited to join these artists for a FREE Opening Reception, taking place on International Women’s Day, Wednesday, March 8, from 6:30-8pm at Morning Jones, a restaurant inside of the Denver Milk Market. Final designs will be on display and available for sale. To purchase artwork, please check https://athenaprojectarts.org/ on March 10, 2024 when designs will be available online.

About Athena Project: Athena Project empowers all women and underrepresented genders through the arts by providing them with paid work opportunities while also ensuring audiences get to see and hear their artistic works. We change the world, one paid underrepresented artist at a time. Our programs evolve as the political and social landscape changes.
At present, they include: Read & Rant: A Plays in Progress Series, a book club that serves the needs of new playwrights, providing them with readers and dramaturgical support while providing community members with opportunities to support new work. Curating Art for Impact, a collaboration with or on behalf of community partners, providing unique experiential art such as pop-up performances which elevate and amplify their missions. Artful Reflections, a forum which connects artists with their audiences and fellow artists with a facilitated discussion about the emotional impact of the art through the lens of the attendants’ world views and identities. Girls Create, summer intensive week-long camps exploring various art forms for middle school girls and nonbinary youth which explore art forms like playwriting, fashion design, stand up comedy and self-expression through art, culminating in final performances shared with friends, family, and the public. This program empowers participants to lead and effect change in themselves and others through creative learning.
