The Womxn Project Education Fund partners with artists, teachers, activists, and experts to bring you information and insight into the work of building a more just and equitable Rhode Island. Explore the examples below to see the methods and variation on our ways we work towards one goal: building a movement for more people standing up for bodily freedom forever.
Movement in Community
The Womxn Project Education Fund is out in the community doing many different types of events that are successful for their collaborative nature.

Here is an small range of the examples to this work.
