Journal
contributor, Theresa Bennett-Wilkes
has a fun and special feature story for you this month.
Ms. Bennett-Wilkes talks with Dr. Tom Hanchett
of the Levine Museum of the New South in Charlotte. Dr.
Hanchett is the museum's historian. In just a few days,
the museum will launch its newest exhibit titled, "Purses,
Platforms and Power: Women Changing Charlotte in the 1970s."
The exhibit is a tribute,
as well as a flashback to some of Charlotte's trailblazing
women who "stepped out" to change
their world at a local level. This exhibit promises to be
an interesting stroll down memory lane and offers many tangible
relics of a by-gone era. Make it point to visit the museum
and the exhibit sometime during the next several months.
The exhibit runs through January 2006.
This
month we have incorporated two new links within the Journal,
an "events"
and an "index"
link. The events link and page was designed to offer groups
and organizations across the state an opportunity to share
their events-related announcements with the Journal
readers. Any organization
may submit notices to the Journal
for posting consideration. If you have an upcoming educational
or self-development event and would like to let others know
about it, contact
us. We will review your posting request within 48
hours. Be sure to tell your event planners,
professional member organizations and colleagues
about this new service offered through the North
Carolina Journal for Women. If
you have an event that you would like to have posted, but
are not sure if it might meet our criteria, contact us with
your questions about the event.
Our new
"index"
link will offer you a listing of the
Journal's contributors
and their articles from the very first issue (December 2003).
This quick reference link
will help you find other articles written
by your favorite contributors. Look for more new site enhancements
in the coming months. I welcome your suggestions for new
ideas and hope you will contact me.
Wishing
you all the best!
