About this Event

Women in Art Opening Artists Reception
Sunday, 3/8/26, 11am-1pm
Lichtenstein Center for the Arts
28 Renne Ave
Pittsfield, MA 01201

73 women artists, several of which identify as queer or LBTQ, will showcase their work for Women in Art, a group exhibition opening in March at the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts in Pittsfield.
The show celebrates the creativity, perspectives and voices of women in the Berkshires working across all media. It aims to highlight the diversity of women’s artistic practices – bold or subtle, experimental or traditional.

The artists responded to a call for art from the Pittsfield Office of Cultural Development early in 2026. The call was open to women artists (cis and trans). Hundreds of pieces were submitted from across Berkshire County. The show features emerging and established artists across the Berkshires and showcases paintings, sculpture, photography, mixed media, digital, fiber and more.

“The response to this call was overwhelming, it’s quite obvious that women are looking for something to celebrate,” said Jen Glockner, Pittsfield’s Cultural Development Director. “Art is powerful. Women are powerful. This exhibition celebrates that.”

Women in Art opens on International Women’s Day – Sunday, March 8 with a reception
from 11am-1pm at the Lichtenstein Center for the Arts. The exhibition runs through
March 27. The gallery is open Wednesday-Friday 11am-3pm or by appointment.

Q-MoB is supporting this show because queer artists. including Suzanne Gammon & Rachel Kaufmann are in the Berkshire Queer Arts Collective and are submitting work for Q-MoB's 2nd Annual Pride Art Exhibit and Q-MoB has two grants from the Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation to promote the exhibits & performances of local queer artists in the Greater Berkshire Region, and because Solidarity is Sexy!
