The Lives of Women: 

An Intercultural Perspective

May 2 - August 16, 2025

From the Americas to South Africa, East Asia, and beyond—women have participated in various crafts, tended to their communities, worn specific clothes to identify themselves, laughed, cried, and persevered through great obstacles.
