Launched in 2023 by curator, gallerist, and art manager Rosita Cavenaghi, the *Mulheres que Transformam* exhibition was created to highlight the female presence in the art world and give visibility to women who find in art a powerful form of expression, resistance, reinvention, and transformation.
Since its inaugural edition, the exhibition has been conceived as a space for connection, dialogue, and recognition, bringing together diverse backgrounds, generations, and artistic mediums. Painting, sculpture, photography, embroidery, textile art, and other forms of expression intertwine to reveal stories, feelings, memories, and experiences that reflect the richness and plurality of the female universe.
The exhibition’s name itself captures the project's essence: women who transform matter into art, experiences into narratives, and challenges into new possibilities. These are artists who, through their creative processes, also transform themselves and awaken new perceptions in everyone who encounters their work.
Conceived by Rosita Cavenaghi—a prominent figure in the art market—*Mulheres que Transformam* goes beyond the traditional concept of a group exhibition. The project has established itself as an initiative that fosters inclusion, appreciation, recognition, and the strengthening of female artistic production, creating connections among artists, the public, curators, collectors, and professionals from various fields.
With a career dedicated to art and to building bridges between artists and the public, Rosita Cavenaghi brings together extensive experience as an art manager, curator, and gallerist. After years of working in the art market, she founded Art_a3 Gallery, expanding her efforts to champion both established artists and emerging talent, while developing curatorial projects that bring people, stories, and diverse artistic expressions closer together.
Over the course of its editions, *Mulheres que Transformam* has broadened its scope of representation and strengthened its identity as a project committed to celebrating art created by women. In 2026, marking its fourth edition, the exhibition reaffirms its mission to celebrate talent, reveal new narratives, and recognize the power of female creativity.
More than just showcasing artworks, the exhibition invites the public to feel, reflect, and connect with diverse stories and perspectives. It is an encounter with women who transform the way we see, as well as matter, memory, and life itself, through art.
Because art transforms. Voices transform. And when women occupy spaces—creating, expressing, and sharing their stories—new possibilities are born.

An evening gathering held on September 15 at GD Arena Show, in Santo Amaro, São Paulo, brought together representatives of associations, entrepreneurs, public managers and social leaders around initiatives focused on social impact and new partnerships.
The night of September 15 was marked by dialogue, the presentation of projects and the search for new partnerships aimed at contributing to the quality of life of the population in São Paulo.
The event took place at GD Arena Show, located at Rua Rui Raizama, No. 42, Santo Amaro, São Paulo, bringing together representatives from different sectors of society interested in developing initiatives with social and institutional impact.
Among the participants was Arthur de Souza Neto, Vice President of the International Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Agriculture, Culture and Tourism – Equatorial Guinea and Amazon Region, who took part in discussions involving institutional cooperation, culture, social responsibility and closer connections between private initiatives and projects of public interest.
Another highlight was the participation of Elza, entrepreneur and founder of Somnus Colchões, who presented a proposal in the healthcare sector involving the development and supply of high-technology hospital mattresses designed for stretchers in São Paulo's public hospitals.
The proposal seeks to offer a technological solution designed to improve comfort and conditions for patients during their stay in public healthcare facilities.

The central purpose was to strengthen a network of cooperation among associations, entrepreneurs, public managers and civil-society leaders, demonstrating how collaboration between different sectors can contribute to the development of new social solutions.

| WEEKLY BRIEFING Never Forget: President Trump Leads the Nation in Solemn 25th Anniversary Remembrance of September 11, Announces $5,000 Trump Dividend for Every American Adult, Working Families Obamacare Refunds Delivered, Canada’s Trade Retaliation Answered, and Veterans Benefits Accelerated This week, the nation paused to honor the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001 — and President Trump led that remembrance with the gravity it deserves. On September 8, the President participated in the Steel Across America ceremony at the White House, honoring the nearly 3,000 Americans murdered on that morning and the first responders, military members, and intelligence officers who answered the call in the years that followed. On September 9, he signed the Patriot Day 2026 Proclamation, renewing the national vow to Never Forget. And on September 11 itself, the President honored the 9/11 heroes and reaffirmed America’s commitment to the families who lost everything that day. On September 10, President Trump announced the Trump Dividend — a $5,000 payment for every American adult, made possible by the trillions of dollars in economic development, investment, and new manufacturing activity flowing into the United States under his second term. The announcement framed the dividend as the direct return to the American people of the wealth being created by the America First economic agenda — the same agenda Democrats said was impossible. As the President noted, they also said the Big Beautiful Bill couldn’t pass and the $1,776 military bonus couldn’t happen. Both did. The Dividend will too. Also on September 10, the administration announced the Working Families Obamacare Refunds — returning money to hardworking Americans who were overcharged under the previous healthcare system. The refunds represent a direct financial benefit to middle-class families who bore the cost of Obamacare’s broken promises for over a decade. Canada chose this week to retaliate against American trade policy — and the Trump administration answered immediately. On September 8, the President issued a proclamation modifying the scope of additional duties on Canadian motor vehicle products, directly targeting the discriminatory trade practices Canada has used against American manufacturers. The administration’s position is unambiguous: any retaliation against the United States will be met with a proportional and escalating response. This week the administration moved to dramatically accelerate veterans’ access to benefits and employment opportunities, cutting through the bureaucratic backlog at the VA that had kept earned benefits out of the hands of those who served. An exclusive Daily Caller report detailed the administration’s aggressive action to clear the backlog and root out fraud — a direct fulfillment of President Trump’s promise that no veteran will be left waiting for what they have earned. On September 9, the White House released a comprehensive accounting of President Trump’s historic results in under two years — covering job creation, investment secured, drug pricing, border enforcement, energy dominance, and military strength. First Lady Melania Trump also unveiled her personal vision to preserve America’s story through superior design, a formal initiative to elevate the architectural and aesthetic heritage of the nation through the spaces and structures that represent America to the world. President Trump signed five pieces of legislation into law this week, including four House bills and S. 858, extending the reach of this administration’s legislative accomplishments. The President also extended warm wishes to Jewish Americans marking Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. In manufacturing news, Sapporo announced it is moving its beer production from Canada to the United States in response to tariffs, and L3Harris received a landmark PAC-3 MSE propulsion contract to support the Arsenal of Freedom — yet more evidence that the Trump trade and defense agenda is creating American jobs and strengthening the industrial base. |

Never Forget: President Trump Leads the Nation on the 25th Anniversary of September 11. Twenty-five years ago, nearly 3,000 Americans were murdered in the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil. This week, President Trump ensured the nation marked that solemn anniversary with the dignity it demands. On September 8, he participated in the Steel Across America ceremony at the White House, honoring the victims, first responders, and the military and intelligence officers who have protected this country in the years since. On September 9, he signed the Patriot Day 2026 Proclamation, formally renewing America’s vow to Never Forget. On September 11 itself, the President and First Lady honored the fallen and the heroes who rose to answer the call — and announced that Americans may request a September 11 Remembrance Card from the White House to mark this historic anniversary. Trump Announces the $5,000 Trump Dividend for Every American Adult. On September 10, President Trump announced the Trump Dividend — a $5,000 payment to every American adult, funded by the unprecedented torrent of economic development and investment flooding into the United States under the America First agenda. The administration framed the dividend as the people’s rightful share of a national economic renaissance: trillions in new investment, record manufacturing activity, and the largest legislative tax relief in American history through the Big Beautiful Bill. Critics in the Democratic Party immediately opposed the dividend. The President’s response was direct: they also said the Big Beautiful Bill couldn’t pass, and the $1,776 military bonus couldn’t happen. Both did. When he says something, he means it. Working Families Obamacare Refunds Delivered. President Trump announced the Working Families Obamacare Refunds on September 10, returning money to American families who were overcharged and underserved by the previous healthcare system. The refunds represent a tangible, direct benefit to the middle-class families who bore the cost of Obamacare’s broken promises — rising premiums, shrinking networks, and a system that prioritized government control over patient choice — for more than a decade. The Trump administration is delivering what the previous system never did: accountability and money back in hardworking Americans’ pockets. Canada Retaliates — America Answers Immediately. Canada chose this week to retaliate against U.S. trade policy, and the Trump administration did not wait to respond. On September 8, the President issued a proclamation modifying the scope of additional duties on Canadian products, directly targeting the motor vehicle sector where Canada has maintained discriminatory trade practices against American manufacturers. The administration’s message to trading partners remains consistent: America will negotiate in good faith, but any retaliation will be met with an immediate and escalating counter-response. The era of other nations taking advantage of American markets without consequence is over. Veterans’ Benefits Accelerated: Cutting the Backlog, Ending the Wait. This week, President Trump signed a directive to dramatically accelerate veterans’ access to earned benefits and employment opportunities, cutting through the bureaucratic backlog that has kept compensation out of the hands of those who served. An exclusive Daily Caller report detailed the administration’s aggressive action at the VA: identifying and eliminating fraudulent claims that crowded out legitimate veterans, streamlining the adjudication process, and connecting veterans directly to employment programs tied to the manufacturing and infrastructure boom underway across the country. No veteran should wait years for what they have already earned — and under this administration, they won’t. Two Years of Historic Results — and Melania’s Vision for America’s Heritage. On September 9, the White House released a sweeping account of President Trump’s historic results in under two years: more than 1 million private-sector jobs, $11.2 trillion in secured investment, prescription drug prices at a 60-year low, 3 million illegal migrants removed, and Iran under maximum economic and military pressure. That same day, First Lady Melania Trump unveiled her personal vision to preserve America’s story through superior design — a formal initiative to restore and elevate the architectural and aesthetic standards of America’s most historic spaces, ensuring that the buildings and structures representing this nation to the world reflect the grandeur and permanence of what America stands for. Five Bills Signed, Rosh Hashanah Honored, Sapporo Moves to America, and L3Harris Secures Defense Contract. President Trump signed five pieces of legislation into law this week, including four House bills covering a range of domestic priorities and S. 858. He also extended warm wishes to Jewish Americans observing Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year. In the private sector, Sapporo announced it is moving beer production from Canada to the United States in direct response to Trump’s tariff policy — exactly the reshoring effect the America First trade agenda was designed to produce. And L3Harris received a landmark PAC-3 MSE propulsion contract to power America’s Arsenal of Freedom, further strengthening the domestic defense industrial base and the communities that build this country’s military might. |

$5,000 The Trump Dividend — a $5,000 payment for every American adult, made possible by the trillions of dollars in economic development, investment, and manufacturing activity that President Trump’s America First agenda has brought back to the United States. America is winning. Now Americans win with it. |

“The $5,000 Trump Dividend, given to all Adults in the United States due to the fact that our Country is taking in Trillions of Dollars of Economic Development, Investment, and Pure SUCCESS, is being criticized by ‘Dumocrats’ who are hoping that it never happens — But it will! As an example, the Dumocrats said THE GREAT BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL, one of the largest ever approved by Congress, or signed into Law by a President happened, despite the Dumocrats saying it would be impossible to get approved — Or the Gift of $1776 that I gave last year to our Military, was an almost guaranteed Non Starter, everyone said it could not be done, but it was, our Military Patriots got the money, and loved it. When I say something, I mean it! The $5,000 Dividend will happen because the People of our Country deserve it. VOTE REPUBLICAN — MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! President DONALD J. TRUMP” |
