In this installment of “Take a Dive,” we will be zeroing in on powerhouse women creators who not only made major contributions to the children’s literature canon, but also helped lead art movements, civil rights groups, and feminist organizations.   

The program will start with an introduction in the Lucky Rabbit Bookstore, followed by a guided tour with our co-founder and director Deb through museum exhibits that feature this session’s powerhouse women, including Esther Averill’s Fire Cat; Alexandra Day’s Good Dog, Carl; Pura Belpré’s Perez and Martina; and Beatrice Schenk de Regniers’ May I Bring a Friend? Afterwards, we will have an open conversation over refreshments while we craft custom stamps to decorate stationery. Each ticket includes a $5.00 book voucher to use at Lucky Rabbit Books.

This event is open to anyone aged 21+. Refreshments and light snacks will be included.

Please note:  

• Museum admission is not included.

• Ticket required for each guest.  

• The Lucky Rabbit Bookstore will be open at the end of the event.
