GRL PWR aims to create a platform for a diverse array of artist and creatives, specifically: womyn identified, poc, trans, nonbinary, femme & queer artists.
GRL PWR is more than just a dance party. Originally founded by artist and musician Amy Reid as a response to the lack of womyn/femme DJs represented in the Baltimore music scene, it has since grown into a collective made up of three artists based in Baltimore: Amy Reid, Pangelica and Waqia Kareem.
