5th Annual BraVa! Fundraiser Event

The Arts Center of the Capital Region is partnering with YWCA of the Greater Capital Region for their 5th Annual “Brava!”, a fundraiser seeking to provide new bras to women and girls that live at YWCA-GCR and those in need in the Greater Capital Region at no cost. 

The event will feature writers from around the region and beyond who will read jury-selected poems and essays or perform songs and monologues on the subject of brassieres in their lives. The pieces will touch on the subject from many viewpoints and range from poignant to hilarious. 

New this year: BraVa! The Book: Stories that Celebrate Something Close to Our Hearts, a compilation of pieces performed at BraVa! 2015 - 2018. To tell us more we welcome BraVa founder Marion Roach and Starletta Smith, acting director of the YWCA-GCR.
