We are collaborating with local filmmakers to present Womanhood: The Series, Season 2. These short comedy films are designed to ignite conversation and change so that women in STEM have a better, more accepting and encouraging workplace. Our tagline: Sure the line for the bathroom is shorter, but women want a seat at the table.

The showing would consist of screening three of the "episodes" (each film is 7-12 minutes long) exploring cultural attitudes and biases that hinder women's advancement in STEM fields. 

Using comedy to highlight social injustices and biases, this project offers a unique storytelling approach that has already proven impactful. Season 1 received eight awards and over 55 international film festival acceptances, demonstrating that audiences want to see high-quality content with female leads and stories about women.

This groundbreaking project fosters collaboration between two traditionally separate fields—filmmaking and STEM—bringing filmmakers and STEM professionals together to tell stories that help dismantle structural barriers in STEM careers. By working side-by-side, we aim to generate fresh perspectives and promote inclusive representation of women in science and technology.

Door open at 6:30pm (open seating), show will start at 7:00pm.
