The Minnesota Humanities Center (MHC) is excited to host Headscarf Story Circle, the first of a series of offerings that recognizes the strength and resiliency of women. Join us as we gather together through the shared connection of the headscarf and its complexity. This event features engaging activities that inspire perseverance, hope, and healing. Guests are encouraged to wear a headscarf or head dress that is symbolic of anything from a fashion statement, cultural identity, health related, or memories and beliefs. The ritual of tea represents beauty, calm, and restorative elements. We are honored to have Rose McGee, founder of Headscarf Society TeaLit and a Humanities Officer at MHC, as tea host. This event features inspiring stories from eight intergenerational and culturally diverse women and heartfelt table conversations by all in attendance. Delicious hors d’oeuvres will be served with tea. Special music by guest harpist Heather Cornelius.
