“Emergence, Finding Voice, and the 'Woman Question': a Celebration”
by Beth Binhammer

With the emergence of Hillary Clinton as the ostensible Democratic nominee for President of the United States, the 'woman question' presents itself for our consideration. How have women found voice and emerged as leaders, writers, poets, and playwrights both despite and because of, in poet Adrienne Rich's terms, "the forces ranged.../within us and against us, against us and within us"? We will explore and celebrate several extraordinary, ordinary women who risked speaking publicly through their art for the sake of self-transformation as well as the elevation and liberation of other women. 

Madison’s well-known chanteuse, Lynette Margulies, will perform the musical offerings.
