Alison Bechdel: The Secret to Superhuman Strength

@ Chicago Humanities Festival

Online

Opening Tuesday, May 11th, from 7PM - 8PM

Comics and cultural superstar Alison Bechdel (Fun Home) comes to CHF to offer us a liberating life hack: the secret to superhuman strength is not six-pack abs. Bechdel would know—she’s spent six decades participating in a plethora of exercise fads and trends on a quest to improve herself. In this graphic memoir about her relationship with fitness, Bechdel talks with the artist Nicole Eisenman about the real secret to superhuman strength: appreciating the body and the life we already have.
Tickets are $29, which includes access to the virtual event and a copy of The Secret to Superhuman Strength shipped directly to your door (U.S. addresses only).

This program is generously underwritten by Elaine and Roger Haydock.
