[Wamvan] Invitation - dialogue, creative exploration of identities: queer, feminist and Christian

Fri May 16 10:50:12 PDT 2014

Hi everyone,

Thank you for the warm welcome!  My residency is from June 2-June 28.  I
haven't received my schedule yet, but I'm sure it'll be flexible.  Since
I'm planning to do an event at the end of the month, the earlier would be
better.

Joanna, when are you back in town?  Could we set a date earlier that week?
 I could also facilitate more than one workshop depending on availability.
 Looking forward to meeting you all!

Best,
Jenna
