Women Photographers...on exhibit @ Macy's! Women's History Month!

 



Macy's at Herald Square in New  York is celebrating Women's History Month with an exhibition of eclectic photographs by female photographers!

In tandem with the wall framed perspectives, the top retailer will also stream special features via satellite, that examine women and their achievements around the globe.

The dazzling display will feature works by emerging artists, as well as established lensers, juried by Karen Marshall.

Marshall is a freelance photographer who rose to prominence in cultural circles by documenting American social issues over the past few years.

Although the much-ballyhooed exhibition kicks off on March 2nd on the 8th floor gallery at Herald Square, the following evening there will also be a tony reception where fans may mix-and-mingle with the artists.
