>Los Angeles-based artist Meg Cranston presents a selection of rarely 
>screened video works produced at the Los Angeles Woman's Building in 
>the 1970s. Founded in 1973, the Woman's Building was a downtown Los 
>Angeles hub for feminist thought, discussion, mobilization, social 
>support, creativity, and art making. The Feminist Studio Workshop 
>provided resources to female artists, including a number of early 
>Sony Portapak video cameras. The tapes that emerged from the program 
>reflect the insight and urgency with which feminist artists were 
>making their voices heard.
>
>This screening features work by Jerri Allyn, Nancy Angelo and 
>Candace Compton, Nancy Buchanan, Cheri Gaulke, Leslie Labowitz, 
>Suzanne Lacy, Susan Mogul, Antoinette de Jong Portis, Sheila Ruth, 
>and Chris Wong.
>
>Admission to this event is free, but reservations are required. 
>Parking is $8.00 per car.
