Founded in 1992, Woman Made Gallery (WMG) is a Chicago-based nonprofit dedicated to uplifting women and non-binary artists through exhibitions, mentorship, and community engagement.
For over three decades, WMG has presented more than 475 exhibitions featuring over 10,000 artists from local, national, and international communities. Each show invites viewers to experience art that challenges, inspires, and reflects the world through a feminist lens.
Beyond the gallery walls, WMG nurtures a creative network of 350+ member artists and connects with 15,000+ supporters through workshops, artist talks, and panel discussions that spark conversation and build connection.
Whether you’re an art lover seeking discovery or a donor passionate about equity in the arts, Woman Made Gallery offers a chance to be part of something meaningful — a movement where creativity drives change and every voice matters.
