 The
Women's Art Forum Show is a monthly,
televised series hosted by artist Geri Holland
that features interviews with a diversity of local women artists.
This show is based on programs that have taken place at past
gatherings of the Hopkinton Women's Art Forum ... a group of
women from the Metrowest area and beyond who gather to
share stories of life and interests in the arts.
Past presentations have included acoustic musical performances
(showcasing songs and instrumental music), poetry and
short story/screenwriting readings, discussions and
demonstrations of visual art including painting, drawing,
altered art, glass blowing, etc, presentations
of dance, djembe drumming as well as one-woman performances,
interactive workshops for art installations and
improvisational theater. Over the past 6 years, these
sessions have focused on the inter-weaving of the
milestones and matters of women's lives with their artistic
passions and talents.
TV viewers are now able to witness these sessions by
tuning into the interviews with some of the past contributing
artists that are facilitated by the vivacious Geri Holland. Sometimes as program
guide, Geri will take you on a tour to an artist's studio or to
her home and other times she will interview guests at the HCAM Studios. As Women's Art
Forum co-facilitator, Geri is known for her
warm, open-armed, interactive approach with others as she makes
each guest feel at ease when asking a series of open response
questions about the artists and their lives ....and always ends
her show with a warm hug of thanks.
 The
Women's Art Forum is a program of the Cultural Arts Alliance of
Hopkinton MA. This Forum is very flexible-minded in
membership and participation , with the main mission being to
inform members of local arts events and host occasional
gatherings for all who are interested in joining to talk
about the arts as they intersect with women's lives...and to find ways to inspire, encourage and learn from each other through collective sharing of life-stories
and art. The Women's Art Forum is inclusive to all
women , membership is free, and one does not have to be
an artist to attend. For those interested in
finding more information about The Women's Art Forum events,
