POLKI Hidden Power: Artist Panel & Reception
Join us for a look inside the newest exhibition at the Museum at Texas Tech with an artist panel/discussion in the Helen DeVitt Jones Auditorium, Museum of Texas Tech, October 5th. 

The exhibition "POLKI Hidden Power", comprising the works of Polish women: illustrators and ceramic artists that approach the subject of womanhood in their arts.

The aim of the exhibition is to take a closer look at Polish women – Polki, and seek out the traces of their feminine, hidden power in their work and art. For centuries women were in a subordinate position in terms of their rights, voice, independence, their social and familial status. They had limited choices, save for to muster up the strength to carry on in order to fulfill the expectations of society.
