Project Girl mobilizes communities through art-based education and exploration, and is a broad-based catalyst for changing the way girls interpret and respond to popular media advertising and entertainment. Using art as a means to reflect, express, and transform, Project Girl workshops, curriculum, lectures and traveling art exhibition provide an easy-to-follow and easily adaptable roadmap for educators and girl group leaders to critically examine our contemporary media-based culture and explore key media literacy themes and issues with adolescent girls. Founded in 2006 by visual artist Kelly Parks Snider and videographer Jane Bartell, Project Girl is reaching thousands nationwide through partnerships with organizations including the Girl Scouts, the YMCA, the Walker Art Center Teen Arts Council, Intermedia Arts, the Emily Program for eating disorders, Edgewood College, Alverno College, Girls Inc., the Perpich Center for the Arts and many other art centers throughout the country.
