El Puente, a Williamsburg activism and arts collective, celebrates Women's History Month with its MANIFEST! festival, running from March 3 to March 29. This event series spotlights women in the Brooklyn community through workshops, performances, and discussions. Kickoff events include Kitchen Table Talk, featuring prominent local women in dialogue, and the self-defense series Counter Force. The festival emphasizes themes of reclamation and empowerment, especially in light of social and political struggles, making it a dynamic platform for creative expression and community engagement.
We gather in defiance of the forces that seek to silence us, to erase us. This is a space of reclamation, of remembering that W*men have always been at the forefront of change.
MANIFEST! is our offering of strength, joy, and liberation, which aims to elevate the creative voices of Women in the Brooklyn community.
The festival features a full calendar of events from March 3 to March 29, including workshops, performances, and dialogues aimed at uplifting women's creativity.
The celebration kicks off with Kitchen Table Talk, a dialogue that fosters intergenerational conversation among key women leaders within the community.
