Friday, May 9, 2025 from 5:30pm-6:45pm
with Victoria Rutledge, Maine Women’s Lobby & Maine Coalition Against Sexual Assault (MECASA)
PYP DOWNTOWN
What does it mean to take action and build a community in the world that is intentionally organized to leave us feeling overwhelmed, overworked, and unsupported? As the pace and volume of the world and news cycles continue to amplify, how do we find our bearings enough to engage locally in meaningful ways that create change? If you have been struggling with these questions, you are not alone. That’s why we are teaming up with the Maine Women’s Lobby and the Maine Coalition Against Sexual Assault to learn about the work happening in the state of Maine to protect marginalized genders and resist patriarchal violence, which affects people of all genders and gender expressions. After a brief teach-in, we will write postcards to our local representatives, find intuitive movement followed by a short meditation, and share introductions so we can get to know each other better.
Sign-up is free! Everyone is welcome!
