Our celebration of #WomensHistoryMonth continues with the iconic LGBTQ painter, Frida Kahlo. Through her vibrant and surreal art, Frida was able to express both the physical and emotional pain she dealt with throughout her life. She celebrated her Mexican heritage, and her influence in Mexican history led her to be featured on the new 500 peso bill in 2010. Frida fearlessly challenged feminine norms, and her life work continues to inspire women and artists today.

#WomensHistoryMonth Spotlight: Jewel Thais-Williams owned the first club for queer people of color in Los Angeles, but her work didn’t end there.
