Join Generation Women DC for a special fundraising evening in support of the Alan Cheuse International Writers Center. This November, we explore how stories connect us across cultures and continents. Each of our multigenerational speakers will share a personal tale of how travel, literature, or global voices have shaped their lives, perspectives, and imaginations.

Expect an evening of heartfelt storytelling, laughter, and inspiration as we celebrate the power of words to bridge borders and bring the world a little closer together.
