The HerStories Project

In early February, a stellar line-up of poets, storytellers, and writers signed on to share their gifts at the HerStories Benefit Show and Open Mike. And tomorrow, March 27, is the fundraiser for the Women’s Center of Greater Lansing! The fun begins at 4:00pm at Everybody Reads Bookstore.
