WOCC WEEK

WOCC Week emerged as a way to provide virtual healing spaces for women of color in response to last March's tornado and the onset of the pandemic. This year we'll offer room to process what we've been through and hopeful spaces to imagine the near future in our new normal.

Manifest That Sh*t!

We all know 2020 was quite a mess... but Black women come from a long line ingenious goddesses and we survived. Now that we've taken stock of all that was lost, it's time to turn our attention to the future! We'll walk you through crafting your vision for the future and support you through achieving your goals.

The Inside Story with Jennifer Whitcomb-Oliva

Your personal story is powerful tool in shaping how the world sees you. Beyond personal branding, shaping your narrative provides a foundation for showing up from a place of strength in all areas of your life. Interdisciplinary performer and writer Jennifer Whitcomb-Oliva will help us strike the right balance and present the best story.

Seven Project Story Circle

Be an important part of the development process for the latest artistic creation from interdisciplinary performer and writer Jennifer Whitcomb-Oliva. SEVEN dives into the intersection of Blackness and Fatness through the lens of the Seven Deadly Sins and the Seven Heavenly Virtues. In this unique story circle designed specifically for Black women who identify as plus-sized and/or fat, Jennifer will share personal stories and invite other women to share their own experiences with “the F word.” Together, the women in this safe space will not only commiserate on the challenges placed by society on large women, but will leave with an empowered sense of community and self-confidence.
