Next monthly meeting, April 14, 2021

“Suffragettes in Corselettes”  – a program presented by mother/daughter team – ‘Grounded Goodwife‘. Please join us on ZOOM this month for our monthly April meeting at 7 pm.

For centuries, women have allowed themselves to be squeezed, twisted, and squished to conform to desired shapes. The history of underwear reveals a lot about women’s changing roles in society – how we perceive ourselves, and how we’re viewed by others. The 1910s saw an end to the hourglass figure with a tiny waist. Women were finally able to breathe and move more freely. Did the demise of tightlacing help women gain the right to vote in 1920? Underwear matters.

AAUW February Auction Is Right Around The Corner!

Our next meeting is the biennial AAUW Auction, so it’s time to dust off your thinking caps and limber up your crafting hands! The meeting is just two days away, so we should all be thinking of goods and services we can donate to the auction.

The particulars: You can donate all kinds of goods and services, including handmade items, gift certificates, personal services (e.g., ride to the airport, garden planning), gift or seasonal items; you name it. We will be bidding on them live, and all monies will benefit the various funds and foundations of AAUW. Bring a guest, bring an auction donation, and, of course, bring your checkbooks! With Monique as our talented auctioneer, this evening is always full of fun and surprises.

The meeting is on Wednesday, February 12, 2020, at 7PM at the First United Methodist Church, 645 Main Street, in Melrose, MA 02176. As always, guests are welcome!

Greetings!
