FEMME Art Fair

 

August 27 - 30, 2026 – Washington, D.C.

Venue: The Square, 1850 K Street NW

​

Lucienne Mettam exhibited eight original works at FEMME Art Fair at The Square in Washington, DC. A selection of her limited-edition prints was also featured in the fair’s museum shop.

 

FEMME brought together more than 100 women artists from across the country, with a strong emphasis on the DMV creative community. The fair connected artists with collectors, cultural leaders, brands, and the public through exhibitions, workshops, conversations, performances, and events addressing art, leadership, and the realities of sustaining a creative career. Programming also featured the Guerrilla Girls, the iconic feminist art collective known for confronting gender and racial inequity within the art world.

 

The fair was created through a collaboration between USAN USAN, the producers of DC’s Umbrella Art Fair, and Our Daughters’ Futures Fund, a nonprofit that uses art as a catalyst for civic engagement and social change. The collaboration was led by Ally Mumm and Peter Chang, co-founders of USAN USAN, alongside artists and cultural organizers Maggie O’Neill and Sally McBratney, co-founders of Our Daughters’ Futures Fund.

 

More than an exhibition, FEMME was conceived as a direct response to the persistent inequities women face within the art market. Its model was designed to move visibility, resources, and economic opportunity directly to women artists, with 100% of artwork sales going to the artists themselves.
