The Minnesota Valley Chapter of the National Organization for Women (NOW) will meet on Wednesday, January 23, at the Prior Lake Public Library, located at 16210 Eagle Creek Avenue South. A general business meeting will be held at 7:00 p.m. and all MN Valley NOW members are welcome to attend.

At 7:30 p.m., the public is welcome to attend a free screening of “Until the Violence Stops”. “Until the Violence Stops” chronicles how Eve Ensler’s hit Off-Broadway solo show The Vagina Monologues grew into V-Day, an international movement to stop violence against women and girls. “Until the Violence Stops” features emotionally charged interviews and readings by everyday and celebrity women (including Rosie Perez, Selma Hayek, Rosario Dawson, and Jane Fonda), all of whom courageously reveal their intimate experiences and bond together to break the silence that surrounds abuse. “Until the Violence Stops” has been described as “extraordinarily empowering” and “heartbreakingly funny” and is a moving celebration of community awareness that leaves us with the hope that change can happen.

MN Valley NOW, in partnership with The Chameleon Theatre Circle, is bringing V-Day to Prior Lake on February 14 and 16, at 7:30 p.m. at Shepherd of the Lake Lutheran Church. Proceeds from this event will go to the Southern Valley Alliance for Battered Women. Join us on January 23 to learn more about this historic event.
