A ROOM OF ONE'S OWN IS SIMPLY NOT ENOUGH FOR FEMINIST COMMUNICATION
Fees & Grants
CP understands feminism as a fair exchange of social, psychological, moral and financial general wisdom and individual experience. Without your knowledge and talent this unique feminist art project wouldn’t exist and will not persist. We believe in radical candor and sincerity, in clarity instead of charity.
Please note that we are a non-for-profit organization, and that our feminist facilitators are volunteers.
