All community members are invited to explore the concept of gender and the voices of the women&#8217;s movement by experiencing the poetic and academic works of women at Write the Feminine: A Celebration of Women&#8217;s Words and History on Friday, March 25.<\/p>\n<p>Ivy Tech&#8217;s Creative Writer&#8217;s Group and Women&#8217;s Committee are organizing the event and plan to feature readings from contemporary female writers, as well as original works of various genres created and performed by local writers. Ivy Tech-Northeast and IPFW students will have a unique opportunity to see professors in a different light. Instructors, Paula Ashe, Gloria Diaz, Dodie Marie Miller, Deanna Price-Surfus, Maria I. Tsakova, and Kathi Weiss are a few of the women who will perform at the evening celebration.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Students will be introduced to some of the unique written works that have been created by their instructors,&#8221; said Paula Ashe, Chair of the Women&#8217;s Committee. &#8220;It allows us to showcase local talents but also connects their messages to those of more well-known feminists.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Write the Feminine will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. at Ivy Tech-Northeast&#8217;s Coliseum Campus Auditorium (3800 N. Anthony Blvd). The event is free and open to the public.
