Dear Creative Woman, you are not alone.
Introduced by AROHO in 2013, The Q is our intimate source of dialogue as creative women. Welling up from this source, women’s voices and art are curated and amplified in WAVES, a cross-media publication platform, and archived in partnership with creative women. As we gather virtually around a dialogue we shape together, evidence of our gifts, resources, and possibilities exponentially grow.
There are two ways to collaborate with our narrative and vision unique to creative women:
Explore intimate questions with candor
We resolve to hold a safe, sacred space for you. Your contribution to the full Q will only be published with your permission.
Submit your creative work to WAVES
Your words, your art, your music, your own creative riposte, however you are compelled, we seek art and letters of all kinds that speak to and illustrate who we are as creative women and our relationship to each other, past, present, and future.
