Join us for Gender Equi-Tea! Taste different kinds of tea while coming together as a community for conversations in gender equity issues. Our next topic on October 9th will be Eco-Feminism. The Fourth Gender Equity will be held October 24th, and a conversation on social justice and intersectionality will be facilitated by Dr. Floyd Beachum. The Fifth Gender Equity will be held November 13thth, and a conversation on the Global Phenomenon of Domestic Workers will be facilitated by Dr. Peggy Kong.

A conversation that is centered around deconstructing perceptions and problematic societal norms themed around our hair. What influence and impact did our family and our surroundings have on our perception of our hair? What impact does our surroundings or being a college student affect our hair and how we perceive it?

Be Your Own asks participants to visualize through art-making their cultural, spiritual, emotional, or physical relationship with gender. Facilitators will help participants think about how they see their genders and provide samples and guidance in creating art. What is it? Opportunity for campus community members to take action on social issues from a personal and cultural level. RECLAIM: Show others what one of our themes looks like or means to you. Define yourself! HEAL: Allow art - sculpture, drawing, painting, writing, composing - to help you move through something you or loved ones have experienced. TRANSFORM: Make visible the future of our community by viewing the art at our exhibit. How will this happen? CREATE: Use our materials (bring your own, if you'd like) to create your representation of this year's themes. Use any medium that speaks to you! REFLECT: Write up a brief artist's statement after finishing your piece. Facilitators will guide participants through a reflection process to create a statement that focuses on process and context. ACT: Bring friends to the exhibit and develop dialogue as you see your artwork in conversation with the other pieces of art.
