Scottsdale Arts receives two grants for exhibit “transfeminisms”

Posted

Scottsdale Arts received two grants for an upcoming exhibition at Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art.

The Terra Foundation for American Art will support the museum exhibition with a $60,000 grant to be awarded in June, and the National Endowment for the Arts has approved Scottsdale Arts for a Grant for Art Projects award of $50,000, according to a press release. Both grants will support the exhibition “transfeminisms,” which will run through August 25, 2025, at the museum, which is part of the nonprofit Scottsdale Arts.

The exhibit “transfeminisms” is a survey touring show that began in March at London’s Mimosa House. The exhibition outlines strategies of resistance through propositions of collective action, care and radical imagination to generate a more equitable future. The exhibit “transfeminisms” explores the lineage of feminist art practices by facilitating dialogue between emerging and more established artists.

The Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art is located at 7374 E. Second St., Scottsdale, Arizona 85251. It is open Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., and on Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Visit SMoCA.org for information.

Admission is $10–$12 for non-members; $7–$9 for students, seniors (65-plus) and veterans; and free for Scottsdale Arts ONE Members, healthcare workers, first responders, and patrons 18 and younger. Admission to the museum is pay-what-you-wish every Thursday and every second Saturday of the month. Save time and money by booking online at SMoCA.org.
