For the past two years, Planned Parenthood South Atlantic has hosted the Nasty Woman Art Show — a nod to the cheeky yet serious nationwide embrace of the negative phrase that was tossed around during the 2016 U.S. presidential election and transformed into a rallying cry for the protection of women’s health and rights. As a way of honoring male allies committed to reproductive rights and autonomy, the fundraiser has undergone a transformation of its own and updated its moniker to include the work of “bad hombres.” The third edition of pieces no larger than 18 inches by 18 inches takes place Saturday, March 23, 6-9 p.m. in The Cloud Room of Wedge Brewing Co.’s Foundation space. The celebration includes hors d’oeuvres, a photo booth and the opportunity to purchase local artwork for $1 to $200 with all proceeds supporting Planned Parenthood. Free to attend. nastywomenexhibitionavl.com. Photo courtesy of event organizers
