Modality: in-person only

Across cultures and histories, women have journeyed through visible and invisible migrations: geographic, emotional, spiritual, intellectual. This panel invites explorations of how these journeys and thresholds: both outer and inner, shape the evolution of selfhood. From the classroom to the kitchen, from the mother’s memory to the daughter's voice, from exile to homemaking, we seek narratives that dwell in moments and spaces of unfolding and becoming. These are stories of transition and tension, of belonging and othering, of rupture and reconciliation. 

They are also stories of creation, where identity is stitched, sung, or spoken into being. We welcome contributions from writers, scholars, educators, artists, and activists whose work navigates the intersections of identity, gender, and transformation.

Submissions may take the form of scholarly reflection, creative nonfiction, visual or performance art, autoethnography, or hybrid modes. Multimodal presentations are encouraged, as are intergenerational or intercultural collaborations.
