As an artist, my biggest privilege this year has been witnessing the artistry of others through our PSR production of the Vagina Monologues. I am blessed to go to a seminary so rich with so many kinds of artists--actresses, directors, musicians, dancers, painters, etc.--and to be able to help organize a venue to showcase these talents. If you are in the area, support this production. Buy a ticket or donate to our cause. You can donate on paypal.com by sending money to PSRVaginaMonologues@gmail.com. Email that same address for tickets.

Perhaps even bigger than the privilege of facilitating artistry is the privilege of standing with women across the country and across the world to say enough is enough. Violence against women has to stop and we are going to do something about it (and our action will be BEAUTIFUL!). Our little production is doing everything it can to support SafeHouse. JOIN US!

we are establishing a tradition of vaginaness (yes, we made up that word)...
