LEWISTON — The Center for Wisdom’s Women invites all French-speaking women to attend a new community group that meets at the center from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. every Wednesday.
The group is intended to be a gathering space for women to speak French together, and through doing so, share about topics related to womanhood, culture, family and self.
Driving the formation of the group is a recognition that meaningful things happen when diverse groups of women gather. Efforts to create this group reflect the belief that sharing time together and connecting through the French language are powerful ways of bringing people together who have both shared and differing experiences and histories living in Lewiston and beyond. This meeting group is intended to be a comfortable, inclusive, and empowering space for women from many different walks of life.
The community group is facilitated by Hannah McKenzie, a student at Bates College who is from Baltimore, but feels increasing ties to Lewiston communities.
Snacks will be offered. There is no charge for attendance, although donations are encouraged to support The Center for Wisdom’s Women. No reservations are needed, just come and bring a friend.
The Center for Wisdom’s Women is a day drop-in center for women off Bates Street between Pine and Ash streets. Parking at the site is limited but is available on the street or a couple blocks away in the Park Street garage.
