After our meeting on<br \/>\n10\/4 at NJCU, I became too occupied with other things. Here, I would<br \/>\nlike to take a moment to follow up on our meeting and make a few<br \/>\nannouncements. I&#8217;m currently looking for an idea and venue for our<br \/>\nnext meeting, perhaps in March or April (since many of us are so busy<br \/>\nwith CAA.) If you have any upcoming feminist-art related events and<br \/>\nare interested in hosting our meeting during those events, please let<br \/>\nme know.<\/p>\n<p>At the last meeting, Doris Cacoilo, along with other artist members of<br \/>\n_gaia, a collective of women in multidisciplinary arts<br \/>\n(www.gaiastudio.org) based in Hoboken, provided an informative<br \/>\npowerpoint talk on gaia&#8217;s history and past activities. Some details<br \/>\nare recorded in the attached minutes for your interest. Their<br \/>\npresentation was so interesting and we did not really have time to<br \/>\ndiscuss generational differences in feminism. Our next meeting may<br \/>\npick up where we left off or generate new topics.<\/p>\n<p>As Nicole Plett informed some of you (already on the listserve), the<br \/>\nCAA conference in NY this year features many special events related to<br \/>\nor initiated by The Feminist Art Project. Doris Cacoilo and I will be<br \/>\nspeaking in the first feminist art session on Saturday, Feb. 17, and<br \/>\nI&#8217;m also involved in organizing the Award Ceremony for Distinguished<br \/>\nWomen in the Arts, cohosted by the CAA&#8217;s Committee on Women in the<br \/>\nArts, of which I am currently the chair, and the Women&#8217;s Caucus for<br \/>\nArt. This year&#8217;s honorees include Judy Brodsky and Ferris Olin, who<br \/>\nhave been driving force of the Feminist Art Project. Please support<br \/>\nthese events and spread a word!<\/p>\n<p>TFAP-related CAA Happenings:<\/p>\n<p>Saturday, February 17, features a day of Feminist Art Project Special<br \/>\nSessions, free and open to the public, organized by the late Arlene<br \/>\nRaven and art historian Anne Swartz, in the &#8220;Feminist Art Project<br \/>\nSpace,&#8221; Third Floor, Rendezvous Trianon, Hilton New York.<br \/>\nTo view information the TFAP Saturday sessions follow this link<br \/>\nhttp:\/\/conference.collegeart.org\/2007\/special (and scroll all the way<br \/>\ndown to Saturday).<\/p>\n<p>The CWA-WCA Awards Ceremony 2007 takes place Saturday, February 17,<br \/>\nfrom 7 to 9 p.m., at the Hilton.
