International Women's Day is a day for women on all continents to come together to celebrate their struggle for equality, justice, peace and development. WCRC will commemorate our day with performances and stories of creative resistance by leading women of color artists/activists in an evening of art, spoken word, humor and music. Join us for inspiring performances and interactive creative activities for the whole family.
