Embrace - Film Screening and Discussion

A funny, touching, at times gut wrenching but above all, life changing documentary, the heart of "Embrace" is Taryn’s story. How she went from a body hater to a body lover. From being devastated by her perceived ugliness to proudly posing nude for the whole world to see. This film uncovers why poor body image has become a global epidemic and what women everywhere can do to have a brighter future.

In Full Color - Celebrating Women of Color

In Full Color is an annual theatrical event celebrating women of color. Founded in 2015 by playwright and director Summer Dawn Hortillosa, the program has included monologues and poetry by writers from across the country. The show sparks conversations about diversity, prejudice, cultural exchange and other increasingly important topics, including everything from the double-edged sword of Indian domesticity and the perseverance of Latina sexuality to exactly what matters about Black lives.
