LAWRENCE – Parenthood may seem like the most natural, nearly universal adult condition. And yet, according to Maria Velasco, in the art world and especially the academic art world, parenthood is truly challenging, edgy subject matter because it’s liable to get you dismissed as hokey and sentimental.

The arts center’s public-facing front window space will be taken up by Lise Haller Baggesen’s “Mothernism,” a reading room and installation of pinks and purples designed to encourage conversations about care work and intergenerational feminist knowledge-sharing.
