In recognition of March as Women’s History Month, United Airlines launched a first-of-its-kind contest to identify and lift up under-represented women artists. Supporting the contest, United said, “According to the National Museum of Women in the Arts, 51 percent of today’s artists are women, but less than 13 percent of art on display in museums was created by female artists.” Contestants will all vie for a chance to paint a canvas like no other, in this case, a United Airlines Boeing 757.
