A writing workshop led by Jennifer Browdy, PhD with artist Anita Kunz 

Artist Anita Kunz described her series “Original Sisters: Portraits of Tenacity and Courage” as “a love story." It’s a thank you to women on whose shoulders I stand.” Following the artist’s lead, Jennifer Browdy will lead a writing workshop in honor of International Women’s Day, inviting participants to write letters of love and gratitude to women who have inspired them, whether historical figures such as those included in the exhibition, or personal “sheroes” who have had a positive impact on their lives.

Land Acknowledgement

It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
