Winter Torch: A Gathering of Warmth & Resilience
@ Epiphany Center For The Arts
201 S Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Sunday, February 15th, from 4PM - 5:30PM
Escape the cold and chaos outside and step into the warm embrace of Winter Torch! Presented by Woman Made Gallery, this gathering celebrating sisterhood blends the soulful acoustic guitar of Robinlee Garber, along with the powerful storytelling of Maureen Muldoon and Jae Green, illuminating voices too often left unheard.
At the heart of the evening, the screening of Woman Made Gallery’s virtual exhibit – Quiet Piggy: We Cannot be Silenced, serves as a backdrop and a beacon—representing collective voices of resistance that will not be silenced. Together, the music, storytelling, and exhibit form a chorus of resilience, reminding us that creativity is a radiant torch against the darkness.
Within a candlelit historic former church, come singalong with Robinlee, who describes her music vibe as folksy with a touch of torch. You’ll feel the pull of nostalgia through Carole King, Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez and others – you’ll know all the words. In divided times, music assures us that we belong to one another—empowered and bonded when we sing together.
Emcee Maureen Muldoon is a writer, spiritual teacher, and community leader who founded Maiden Voyages, a transformative program exploring the sacred cycles of womanhood through storytelling, creativity, and spiritual sovereignty.
Jae Green is a Woman Made Gallery board member, writer, second generation artist, mother and cancer survivor, whose poetry can be found in anthologies such as Tia Chucha’s Open Fist, Smithsonian Magazine, Hand Over Hand Magazine, Antirhinnium, and Voices from the Heartland.
More than an experience of music and storytelling, Winter Torch supports Woman Made Gallery, ensuring and sustaining art’s power to speak truth, spark dialogue, and resist silence, while allowing a diversity of voices to shine. Attendees will also have an opportunity to shop our pop-up sale of art objects with a feminist bend. A percentage of merchandise and ticket sales supports Woman Made Gallery.
