Some of the highlights include:

Aurora Levins Morales
"Telling To Live: Bearing Witness to Our Lives"
Saturday, April 26, 11:00 - 1:15pm (Session Two)

In this workshop we'll practice the transformative art of testimonio, or social autobiography, using our life stories and family histories to rewrite our place in the world and in the web of relationships we have inherited. Bring a significant family photo and a core story from your own life or your family's traditions about itself.

Rita Wong
"Not to Have Seen it Yet Inheriting It"
Saturday, April 26, 11:00 - 4:00 pm (Sessions Two and Three)

What structures, systems, silences, histories, and survival strategies do our bodies carry?  In the face of immense violence, how do our words and actions matter?  With these questions in mind, please bring a poem or a short passage (either by you or by someone else) that you would like to share.  This workshop involves a discussion and sharing and a period of individual writing.

Habiba Addo
"Dance, Music, Africa"
Saturday, April 26, 2:30 - 4:00pm (Session Three)

I share what impact these various cultures have on me as an
artist and as a person.  I will talk about Ghana, my motherland, and how my art form keeps her near in this very far away land.  In my own obvious embrace of self, I urge/compel other women to do the same:  physically, mentally and spiritually.  Women are necessary, important, formidable, amazing, divine and absolutely beautiful!  During my classes and workshop, you get educated, entertained, a good workout and reborn.

Chrystos
"Feminist Ethics in Publishing and Writing"
Saturday, April 26, 4:15 - 5:45pm (Session Four)

Hi Everyone
