With warmest aloha to all: Purple Moon Dance Project is thrilled to
announce its second annual "In Honor of Our DreamSpeakers"
celebration in 2008, a gala benefit honoring the lives and
contributions of women artists, particularly lesbians and
women of color, whose work has inspired social change, peace
and healing. Building on a tradition we began in 2007,
we are proud to honor the following local Bay Area artists as
DreamSpeakers this year:
Carolyn Brandy, Sharon Page Ritchie,
Robán San Miguel, Terry Sendgraff and Susanne Takehara.
With special
guests: jazz singer Rhiannon, poet Jewelle
Gomez |

We are also very excited and pleased to have
awardwinning CBS5 journalist, author and community leader
Wendy Tokuda as our special guest host. Stay tuned as we
finalize presenters and performers for this spectacular
evening featuring unforgettable dance, music, visual art and
spoken word. So please save the date: Mar. 12, 2008
and join us as we celebrate and honor these amazing and
accomplished women!
