CANCELLED: MAP2020: Flags

All MAP2020 programs through April are postponed or cancelled.

We are working with our parters on the extension of MAP2020 flag installations through May and June and our postponed programs will be produced at later dates to be announced.

Please visit our social media sites where over the next weeks we posting images of and information about each flag and MAP2020 artist.

We appreciate your support of MAP and MAP2020. What a gift it is to be supported to do this work. To dream, and to have that dream realized. I am deeply grateful to all of our collaborators, to all of the artists and writers who gave so much to MAP2020, to our funders and partners, and to the many people who help me to expand and grow my ideas into something larger and more impactful than I could ever accomplish on my own. MAP’s community and collaborators put fuel into our fire, lifting us up, creating a more inclusive, just and empathetic world. We look forward to returning stronger than before and creating avenues of support for artists over the upcoming weeks and months.

Make Art with Purpose (MAP) is commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution with MAP2020: The Further We Roll, The More We Gain, an arts festival at locations throughout Dallas - Fort Worth (DFW).

A core component of MAP 2020 is the commissioning of local and national female artists to design flags, to be installed throughout DFW that honors a woman who has had an impact upon their lives and/or broader culture and society or explores themes connected to the Nineteenth Amendment.
