2025 Season

Monday, February 24, 2025. 1:30 to 3:00 p.m.

Join us for a screening and discussion of a documentary film:

• A Mother Apart (2024, 88 min.)
  • How do you raise a child when your own mother abandoned you? In a remarkable story of healing and forgiveness, Jamaican-American poet and LGBTQ+ activist Staceyann Chin radically re-imagines the essential art of mothering. In seeking her elusive mother-- a trail that leads to Brooklyn, Montreal, Cologne and, finally, Jamaica-- Staceann and her daughter forge a new sense of home.
