SUMMARY:Think & Drink: Democracy in America - A Social Gathering with Jane Adams
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of Women’s History Month\, the Lockport Woman’s Club and the Gaylord Building are proud to present a one-of-a-kind living history experience. Actress Betsey Means will bring Jane Addams to life in Democracy in America\, an engaging performance based on Addams’ own words. \nJane Addams (1860–1935) was a tireless advocate for social justice\, dedicating her life to improving the lives of the underprivileged\, advancing women’s rights\, and pioneering modern social work. She co-founded Chicago’s Hull House\, one of the most influential settlement houses in America\, and in 1931\, she became the first American woman awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Through this immersive performance\, attendees will step back in time to 1910\, experiencing Hull House through the eyes of Addams herself. \nAdapted from Addams’ own writings\, this 50-minute performance by Betsey Means of WomanLore will be followed by an engaging Q&A session.\nCost: Free! \n\nRegistration: Recommended (includes Public Landing Restaurant discount – details below)\n\nJoin us for an inspiring evening celebrating one of America’s most influential women! \nAbout your presenter:\nBetsey Means is a professional actress who has performed with Chicago Shakespeare Theatre\, Shakespeare on the Green\, Blue Rider Theatre\, and Chicago Children’s Theatre\, among other groups. She is the co-founder\, along with actress Eileen Vorbach\, of WomanLore\, which offers educational and entertaining performances adapted directly from the journals\, autobiographies\, and personal writings of influential and powerful women. \nPublic Landing Restaurant Discount: When you register\, you will receive a confirmation email with a discount code good for 20% off your full meal purchase the night of the event.
