Praxilla femina: Inaugural Performance

Saturday, April 8th, 2017, 7PM

Volumes Bookcafe, 1474 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60622, USA map 

We are a collective of women making classical art on our own terms. The art is ours; the art is for everyone. 

Hosted by the beloved Volumes Bookcafe, our Inaugural Performance will include 11 very talented female singers and 1 brilliant female pianist performing a thematic, but varied program of song, opera, and musical theater repertoire.

This event is free to attend, but donations are GREATLY appreciated, including monetary donations and paperback books. All donations received will go to benefit Chicago Books to Women in Prison, an all-volunteer group that distributes paperback books free of charge to people incarcerated in women’s prisons nationwide. They are dedicated to offering women behind bars the opportunity for self-empowerment, education, and entertainment that reading provides.
