Episode 25: International SWAN Day: Past, Present, and Future with FF2 Media OFFSCREEN with Jillian and Sophia

Jan Lisa Huttner and Amelie Lasker join us to discuss International SWAN day, its past, present, and future. The WITASWAN project, or Women In The Audience Supporting Women Artists Now, was created by Jan in 2002 with the Illinois division of the American Association of University Women. In 2007, with the help of WomenArts Founder and Executive Director Martha Richards, the project went global, and International SWAN Day was conceived.

SWAN Day/Support Women Artists Now Day, celebrated on the last Saturday of March,  is an international initiative designed to showcase the power and diversity of women’s creativity. There have been thousands of events worldwide in over 35 countries since its inception.
