DC Women's Spoken Word
Mothertongue focuses on the voices of women by providing opportunities for women in the Washington, DC, metro area to write, present and listen to spoken-word performers. The group believes in the creation of a just and inclusive community where everyone has adequate resources, access and opportunities. Created and staffed completely by volunteers, Mothertongue donates the profits from its events to community-based nonprofit organizations that improve the lives of women and/or girls in the DC area.
Come to the first-ever Mothertongue volunteer night. Meet current volunteers and board members and find out about its programs and volunteer needs on Thursday, March 27, at 7 p.m., at the Whitman Walker LSP building at 1432 U St. NW. No commitment is required; just come and see if volunteering with Mothertongue is for you.
For questions or to RSVP, e-mail Nicole or call her at 202/299-0838.
