8 March - International Women's Day at CDS

Post by Lyubov »

CELEBRATING INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY!

http://maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/L ... 104/134/22

International Women's Day (8 March) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women's equality.

International Women's Day (IWD) has occurred for well over a century, with the first IWD gathering in 1911 supported by over a million people. Today, IWD belongs to all groups collectively everywhere. IWD is not country, group or organization specific.

MARCH 8, 2020

QT plays anything from sultry smooth blues to rockabilly, 60s, 70's into the 80s and beyond... always fun and plenty of giggles! QT will be our emcee between DEBAUCHE dance numbers and will play some great tunes for us to do our own dancing to!

AleyKat (Aleylia Resident) is a well established addition to the SL music scene, and in every way a force to be reckoned with. Her eclectic taste in music will take you on a musical journey with her shows comprising of upbeat pop, classical renditions and timeless material. To express her style of singing one could easily invoke such names as Norah Jones, Melody Gardot and Katie Melua. When you hear Aley perform her mix of modern and ageless classics, you'll know that it's fair to put her in the same category.

Making Waves: Women have, over the past 300 and more years, made enormous strides in establishing for themselves a place of their own in the world, achieving legal and political equality throughout much of the globe. A great deal of this success has derived from the power and insight lent by the rise and ongoing evolution of Feminism. THIS EXHIBIT chronicles the historical contributions of Feminism to the continuing struggle for social justice, acknowledging the past while looking ahead to the future of the women's movement.

SHARING WALL

There will be a wall of posters for YOU to participate in! Bring your favourite poster or images and you'll be able to set them up for display on our Sharing Wall! It's free, fun, and can be thought-provoking.

DOODLE BOARD

Take a turn at doodling on our chalkboard.
