This breakfast workshop is the first of four Jane Addams symposia to take place over the next year. Janice Metzger, author of What Would Jane Say? City-Building Women and a Tale of Two Chicagos, will lead a candid discussion on how Chicago might be a different city today if Jane Addams and other leading women had been a part of the Burnham planning process. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a Q&A with Ms. Metzger and to purchase an autographed copy of the book.
Jane Addams Hull House Association will hold four Symposia (November-2009, March, June, September-2010) as a precursor to Jane Addams’ 150th Birthday Celebration in September 2010. Authors will discuss Jane Addams and topics relevant today. Dynamic women leaders will be honored at each breakfast for their community involvement and commitment.
