Join us at Bakehouse Art Complex for an engaging talk with artist Mary Ellen Scherl as she presents Defending Democracy: Portraits of U.S. Military Women on Canvas and Film.

Defending Democracy is a multimedia, nonprofit initiative comprising a contemporary collection of painted portraits of U.S. servicewomen in tandem with “Sisters in Arms,” an in-progress documentary series that serves to tell their stories beyond the confines of a canvas. Scherl’s presentation will talk about her work as a Social Artist, the mission of the project, the lives of the women featured in the portraits, and the critical contributions women have made to the U.S. military.
