Join the Department of Women's Studies for two-day symposium highlighting feminist scholarship, art, & activism! - Oct. 23-24

The second biennial Women's Studies Graduate Student Association symposium, Interventions: Women's Studies in Action, will take place Friday & Saturday, October 23-24. Feminist scholarship at the University of Maryland engages a wide range of questions, topics, methods and disciplines meant to address the lived experiences and representations of women, especially with regard to issues such as gender, race, sexuality, nationality, disability, etc. Our symposium highlights various feminist projects in development at the University Maryland and the surrounding area, profiling the cutting edge of feminist scholarship, art, and activist work. Friday's agenda offers a special performance by Harlem-based theatrical company, the Harlem Killer Whale Project. Saturday will feature a series of presentations, as well as a roundtable, plenary, and keynote address. For more information, please visit https://wmstumdgsa.wordpress.com and register online!

Interested volunteers can sign up via online registration as well! Women's Studies welcomes any and all volunteers who would like to find ways to be more involved on one or both days of the symposium.
