LunART: Where Creativity is Queen!
Founded on the belief that the arts flourish when all voices are heard, LunART is a Madison-based, award-winning nonprofit dedicated to supporting, inspiring, and celebrating women in the arts. Since 2018, we’ve been on a mission to amplify the voices of women through public performances, exhibitions, educational workshops, and cross-disciplinary collaboration, creating a space where creativity thrives, experimentation is welcomed, and all women-identifying artists are empowered to shine.
โ
Through inclusive programming and intentional advocacy, we aim to advance gender equity in the arts by showcasing world-class chamber music, interdisciplinary experiences, and educational and professional development initiatives that empower artists across generations and geographies.
"LunART is one of the premier arts organizations in the country, shining a bright and beautiful spotlight on women in the arts."
