“MALE-CALL” FOR VOLUNTEERS AND ARTISTS
They are currently looking for men to serve as volunteers and to perform poetry, live painting and music...especially ones who are bilingual as we want to showcase respect and honor for women in attendance from the hearts and native languages of men.
GOAL & PURPOSE:
- Inspiration Through Diversity: The event will provide inspiration and encouragement to women of various nationalities by showcasing the richness of poetry and art shared by men of the community.
- Community Support: With a commitment to giving back, our goal is not only to cover event expenses to local businesses and artists but also to donate a portion of the proceeds to a local non-profit dedicated to assisting women in crisis, Love's Arm.
- Celebrating Diversity: We aspire to represent the multicultural fabric of the Chattanooga community by featuring diverse expressions of poetry, music, art, and more.
- Building Bridges: By assembling local nonprofits that support women as vendors for the event, we aim to create a collaborative space for mutual support, acknowledgment, and community-building.
Join us for an evening of celebration, creativity, and community engagement as we celebrate the strength, resilience, and diversity of women in our community.
