Activism

Artemis Fund, Inc. organizes numerous types of community activism and public education work both locally in the Western MA region and nationally. Activist efforts include tabling; holding film screenings; organizing speakers; putting on educational conferences/gatherings/workshops; and much more! Below are some recent and upcoming local activist efforts we are organizing. Please join us and take part!


Local Campaign Against Sexual Exploitation

Artemis Fund, Inc. joins other local social justice groups and progressive individuals throughout the Pioneer Valley (MA) to call on the Valley Advocate to take social responsibility and drop its ads for massage/escort services. With growing public awareness of the violence inherent in the sex industry and the problem of global trafficking, community objection is increasing towards ads in the Advocate that promote exploitative and potentially illegal activities that harm the most vulnerable in our communities.

Feminist Film Series

Artemis Fund, Inc. organizes local screenings of films and documentaries that shed light on women's lives and struggles. Whether in the mainstream media or in the alternative media, women's issues and voices are often invisible or marginalized. Artemis Fund, Inc. seeks to raise public awareness on feminist concerns and bring to the forefront representations that center the voices, struggles, and lives of women and girls.

The goal of the lecture series is to educate community members, including students and service providers, on women's human rights as well as to promote women's cultural and creative development.
