JESSICA COREY-BUTLER: FEMINIST ART HITS THE GALLERY AT TCC >>>

The word “feminist” might conjure up different images for different people. Some might visualize bra burning. Others might immediately conjure up the sight of Gloria Steinem and others of her ilk. Still others might imagine the different joys â€" and burdens â€" of being a woman in today’s society, defined by gender roles and rules.

The Gallery at Tacoma Community College explores many of these images, and more, in its upcoming show, Feminist Art Exhibition, which holds its artists’ reception tonight (March 12).

Read what I saw on the Weekly Volcano Web site.
