During the All-School Assembly on Monday, October 3 Maggie O’Neill ’95 spoke about her upcoming project SUPERFIERCE – “a traveling art exhibit hosted by female artists paying it forward.” Maggie spoke about her deep affection for Holy Cross and how her education shaped the artist and entrepreneur she has become.

SUPERFIERCE is, as Maggie calls it, a “movement” where “fearless female artists will pay it forward.” The exhibit will launch at the National Museum of Women in the Arts on Wednesday, October 19 (see details at superfierce.org) and will benefit EBeauty, a local non-profit that supports women undergoing treatment for cancer. The project includes a mentorship component that will connect aspiring female artists to those who can provide professional advice. Holy Cross will host an out-of-uniform Tag Day to support the cause.

Maggie invited the students to be part of her “I am SUPERFIERCE!” video – a performance art piece that includes selfie videos featuring groups of strong young women.

Honored by Holy Cross as a 2014 Distinguished Alumna, Maggie is a fine artist and co-founder of SwatchRoom and owner of O’Neill Studios, one of the most sought after decorative and fine art studios in the city and nationwide. Her paintings are inspired by her local Washington, DC iconic landscape, travels abroad, women and fashion, and music. Her paintings hang in homes from DC to Delhi and have been featured in galleries, fashion shows, luxury department stores, and boutiques.
