This Women’s History Month event, Permission Slip to Breathe, offers a powerful invitation to pause, restore, and reconnect. Centered on rest, resilience, and collective power, the evening recognizes the profound ways Black women sustain families, lead movements, shape culture, and transform communities. While honoring this legacy of strength and forward motion, the program also affirms a vital truth: restoration, self-care, and the prioritization of personal well-being are not luxuries reserved for moments of crisis, but essential practices for living fully and sustaining the work of change.
Through performance, reflection, and shared experience, guests are welcomed into a sacred space of renewal, affirmation, and forward movement. The program encourages participants to breathe deeply, release burdens, and embrace joy, imagination, and collective healing. Confirmed artists include Angela Davis, Johdi, Ronda Bozeman, Denise Ervin, Jassmine Parks, Galaxy and Remedi, whose voices and artistry illuminate the strength, vision, and enduring impact of Black women while inspiring reflection, empowerment, and connection.
DJ Righteous Knowledge will curate additional musical vibes for the evening and a special guest poet will remind the women why our breath is sacred. Cocktail hour with complimentary food (until it runs out) will be available in the Rotunda from 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM. Performances will begin in the GM Theater at 7:00 PM. This event is hosted and curated by La Shaun phoenix Moore.
Registration STRONGLY encouraged. Seating is limited and not guaranteed.
