There is no better way to celebrate Women's History Month than by supporting women-owned businesses in and around your community. As recommended by BHS Brooklyn Agent Marcia Hillis, here are 4 women-owned art galleries in Brooklyn to check out!

A.I.R. Gallery

Brooklyn

A.I.R. Gallery is a feminist, nonprofit, artist-run cooperative gallery for women and non-binary artists. For fifty years A.I.R. has provided an essential alternative space for creative risk-taking by artists on the margins of the contemporary art world and the art historical canon. In that time, thousands of women and non-binary artists have come together at A.I.R. on the premise that feminist art practice is not about the kind of work an artist makes, but about how they work with others.

Platform Project Space

Dumbo

Platform Project Space in Dumbo is an artist run exhibition space, founded by Elizabeth Hazan in 2018. Since then Platform has hosted twenty five shows of fellow artists work including painting, sculpture, video and performance. It will celebrate its fifth anniversary with a group show this June.

"I want to share the generosity of the Two Trees subsidy by collaborating with other artists to make high quality shows without the barriers that traditional gallery spaces involve. I can dream up a show I’d like to see and make it happen with few hurdles. The 400 sf space has held a wide range of work, as I aim to keep the program varied and exciting for visitors to keep coming back." --- Elizabeth Hazan, Founder of Platform Project Space
