Commercial Fishing Women in Monuments and Murals

Join us for Commercial Fishing Women in Monuments and Murals, a virtual program highlighting several projects that pay tribute to the important work of women in fishing communities. Ginok Song is an artist who recently created a mural depicting women in the fishing community of Petty Harbor, Newfoundland. Angela Sanfilippo, is president of Gloucester Fishermen’s Wives Association.  GFWA created a quilt that chronicles the history of activism of the wives. They were also instrumental in developing a monument dedicated to the role of women in Gloucester’s fishing community.  The program will be presented using ZOOM.  Click here to join the program.
